Flying
fish are found in warm ocean waters around the world. They can grow to
be 18 inches (35cm) long and are omnivores, with plankton being a big
part of the diet.
To “fly,” the fish starts swimming quickly
toward the surface at speeds of up to 37 mph (60 km/h). Once they break
the surface, they reach heights of 4 feet (1.2 meters) and use their
pectoral fins to glide up to 650 feet (200 meters) before returning to
the water.
