The longhorn cowfish is a small, boxy reef fish with two long horns above its eyes, like a cow's. It lives in warm waters across the Indo-Pacific, from the Red Sea to Japan and Australia. It is a slow swimmer that protects itself with a hard box-like body and a skin poison.1

Sinoshevu noma sinobuthi? Izilwane ezinobuthi zijova ubuthi ngokuluma noma ngokuhlaba. Izilwane ezinoshevu ziyingozi uma uzithinta noma uzidla. Lesi sinoshevu.

Ekhaya

It mainly lives on coral reefs in lagoons, reef flats, estuaries, bays and protected seaward reefs, usually over sand or rubble bottoms. Adults are often solitary and territorial. It is found at depths of 1 to 45 m, and perhaps up to 100 m.1

Sidlani?

It eats benthic algae, microorganisms and foraminiferans, which it strains from sediment. It also eats sponges, polychaete worms, molluscs and small crustaceans and fish. It feeds on animals living in sand by blowing jets of water into the sandy bottom.1

Indlela yokusibona

Two long horns stick out from the front of the head, above the large eyes1
Its body is a solid, triangular, box-like shell made of fused plate-like scales, with the fins and tail sticking out1
The base colour is yellow to olive, decorated with white or bluish spots1
It has no gill cover, only a small slit or hole behind the head1
It swims slowly with its fins, so it looks as if it is hovering1

Amandla oshevu

Ushevu esikhumbeni saso

Isikhumba saso sinoshevu. Kuyingozi ukusithinta, ukusikhotha noma ukusidla.

Ushevu waso wenzani?

When it is severely stressed, it can release a toxin called pahutoxin from the mucus on its skin. This poison is toxic to other boxfish and has properties similar to sea cucumber toxins.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: KuncaneNjengokuhlatshwa yinyosi noma ngaphansi. Cishe akunangozi ebantwini.

Senzani uma sesabile?

Its hard box-like shell, its horns, which can be used to charge at predators, and its skin poison all protect it. If severely stressed, it may release its toxin.1

Uma umuntu esithintile noma esidlile

Uma umuntu esidlile noma enezimpawu ngemva kokusidla: shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo noma isikhungo soshevu (poison centre) ngokushesha.

Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala

Hlala uphephile

Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Uma usithintile noma usidlile: ungahlikihli amehlo noma umlomo wakho, geza izandla zakho futhi uthole usizo lwezokwelapha.

Asikuzingeli wena. Ushevu waso ukhona nje ukuze kungabikho okusidlayo. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso

Its horns may have evolved to make it harder for predators to swallow it, and if damaged, they can grow back within a few months.1

It can make humming and clicking sounds using muscles connected to its swim bladder.1

It is slow and easy to catch by hand, and it makes a grunting noise when caught.1

On Pamban Island in India, a local belief says cows on the island turned into these fish when the land separated.1

It helps protect coral reefs by eating invertebrates that damage them, and it is also important to reef growth.1
