Say Cheese!
This colorful parrotfish has good reason to be happy. Its photo is one of the finalists in this year’s Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards. A photographer took this picture near the Canary Islands, off the west coast of Africa.
The fish isn’t really smiling, though. It always looks like this! Parrotfish have about 1,000 teeth that are fused together and look like a parrot’s beak. The fish use their super-sharp teeth to crush coral and scrape out algae, the tiny plant-like organisms that live inside.
