TRIGGERFISH
  
The triggerfish is named for the large strong spine on its back. This makes it less likely to become dinner for larger fish. Imagine trying to eat a board with a nail sticking out of it! A favorite food of some triggerfish is the spiny sea urchin, an animal that looks like a purple pincushion. To avoid hurting itself while dining on such a treat, the eyes of the triggerfish are not on the front of its face, but instead back where its ears should be.
