The Pufferfish Power Animal

www.poweranimals.info
Hello friends and welcome to the world of power animals. Today we’ll look at the pufferfish. There are 90 species of pufferfish that inhabit warm, temperate waters around the world. They have different spots, stripes, and designs on their bodies and their eyes move independently of each other. The pufferfish has natural defenses to compensate for their slow movement. They can spend much of their day below sand at the bottom, and much like a chameleon, they can change the pigment of their skin for camouflage. Their most amazing ability is to inflate their body by filling their elastic stomachs with huge amounts of water and air to become much larger to discourage their predators. Even their tiny sharp thorns project bigger when they get puffed up. Their internal organs even contain a highly toxic substance that can be lethal to whoever swallows it.Show more

The unique male pufferfish likes to create beautiful masterpieces in the sand on the bottom of the ocean to attract a female. If she is so inclined, she will leave her eggs there and the male will fertilize and take care of them. Whether sending a message or protecting themselves, the pufferfish can shift into something quite formidable when necessary. They aren’t aggressive and won’t get puffed up unless they’re pushed past their limit. Although the pufferfish looks unpredictable, even dangerous, they just want to be left alone. They know exactly when and how to find the balance between staying unnoticed and shy or being intimidating.

The pufferfish is a symbol for courage, protection, defense, and innovative thinking. Call on their spirit when you need to find the confidence and deep strength to stand up for yourself.
