A leopard has many adaptions which make it a successful predator. They have special ankle bones that allow them to climb down trees head first. They have very large muscles in their head, and jaw, that allow them to carry very large prey up trees, where it is safer. Also, their tail is long for a big cat, but it helps with balance as they move through trees and mountain tops. Their coats are spotted to camouflage them, from prey and predators, and it is double-layered to provide insulation.
Lionfish have venomous spines to protect themselves from predators. They have distinct coloration and patterns that serve as a warning signal to potential threats. Their ability to quickly expand their stomach enables them to consume a wide variety of prey items.
well, lionfish have very few predators. you know those little spikes on it? those spikes have some sort of poison in them. only marine animals with special abilities can eat them. even sharks don't dare to try a bite. they'll be like sea turtles eating jellyfish in order to get it on the menu.
Lion fish generally hang out near coral reefs. If you Google lionfish, you'll find that half of the pictures are lions surrounded by coral. Adaptations help animals with those adaptations survive. What do all lionfish have in common? Well, they are all very colorful and they all have a lot of finger like fins that stick out of them. What do those fins look like? coral! Soooo if the fins look like coral, then there must have been a selective pressure that selected for lionfish ancestors that had fins that looked like coral. this eventually spread throughout the lionfish population and eventually became a fixed trait. The same thing happened with the colors and stripes of lion fish. The texture of the lionfish, the colors, the shape of the fins, the poisonousness (:/) basically anything can be called an adaptation if it is genetically transmittable.
they have a color that warns others not to eat their taster fishness
