Fred the Fish

We had a visit from Fred the fish and we found out that he had...

 

•  7 fins and a tail to help him swim 
•  Gills so he could breathe
• No eyelids 
• Teeth on his tongue!  
• Scales to make him waterproof and help him move through water

 

Luckily Fred didn't mind us stroking him, picking him up, feeling in his mouth, flapping his fins, wiggling his tail or lifting his gills - you can't do that with a live fish!

Zahra our photographer took these photos for us (except the one of herself!)
