There are the only fish that feed, court and defend their territories on land. Residing in Old World mangrove swamps and muddy estuaries from West Africa to Papua New Guinea and Australia, they spend about half their time on land and can live up to week without water. The largest species reach lengths of about 20 centimeters
Mudskippers can breath on both land and in the water. Like all fish they have gills. But what makes them unique are the little chambers they have outside their gills which entrap water and enables them to breath on land, sort of like a scuba tank in reverse. To breath in this way they need to regularly fill their mouths with water. They can also absorb oxygen through their skin like a frog does but to do this they need to keep their skin wet and often roll around in the mud to achieve that end.   ]]> 2019-04-29 10:17:19 UTC https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354944105 https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354944657 you smell like swamp]]> 2019-04-29 10:20:14 UTC https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354944657 https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354944708 2019-04-29 10:20:31 UTC https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354944708 https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354946066 2019-04-29 10:37:10 UTC https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354946066 https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354946605 2019-04-29 10:43:12 UTC https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354946605 https://padlet.com/naturae_ludos/yjjc18tvkpjf/wish/354946712 - They bury and consume leaf litter.
- They burrow in the ground. 
-When the tide is high, this species will climb up trees to protect themselves. This is a type of defense mechanism to prevent their population from decreasing.
