Archerfish are appropriately named due to their ridiculous accuracy when hunting for prey. This type of fish is a sniper capable of nailing targets several feet above the surface with deadly jets of water.



Researchers discovered that Archerfish evolved highly-controlled mouths that are able to create enough power to squirt jets forceful enough to kill its prey. Their aiming system somehow tracks their target through even choppy water that refracts light.
The spitting cannon of the Archerfish is so accurate that it’s able to modify the waterjet to optimize the force delivered according to the distance of its target.
