Skin & Bones - Animal Life: Swordfish

Swordfishes are ocean predators capable of swimming at high speeds; they use their flattened bill to slash and spear their prey.

Great video, great editing and very informative. Thanks for sharing

0:46 That is incorrect. All swordfish have scales. The confusion about the presence or absence of scales on adult swordfish owes to the thickening of the dermis above the scale as larval and juvenile swordfish grow. The result is that only the tips of the scale spines protrude in adults. Similarly, a spearfish such as the blue marlin, also has its scales covered with a fine layer of skin which make them easily scraped off the body.
