The pectoral spine has poisonous tissues that help deter predators.1
Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?
Ingozi ebantwini: KubuhlunguKunokuba buhlungu ngokwenene, kodwa phantse akusoze kube kubi kakhulu.Its fin spines may cause injury if the fish is handled improperly. A prick from a spine is no more dangerous than a mosquito sting.1
Senza ntoni xa soyika?
It can lock its pectoral spine as a defence, and the serrated, poison-bearing spine helps to deter predators.1
Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza
- Faka inxeba emanzini ashushu, ashushu kangangoko umntu angakwazi ukunyamezela ngaphandle kokutshiswa (wavavanye ngesandla sakho), imizuzu engama-30 ukuya kwengama-90. Fumana uncedo lwezonyango, ingakumbi kwii-stonefish nakwii-stingray.
Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala
Hlala ukhuselekile
- Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
- Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
- Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.
Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso
Taste buds cover the whole body, and they are most dense on the four pairs of barbels around the mouth.1
They can sense certain amino acids in water at about one part per 100 million, which helps them find food in murky water.1
The largest channel catfish on record weighed 26 kg and was caught in South Carolina in 1964.1
Channel catfish are the most fished catfish in the United States, with around 8 million anglers catching them each year.1
Fossils of this species have been found in central North America from the Miocene onwards, and the species has lasted for nearly 20 million years.1
Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Tennessee have made the channel catfish their official state fish.1
