Hiding among the rocks off the coast of Papua New Guinea, this crocodilefish proved dangerous when it lunged directly at the camera lens in pursuit of a blue chromis, a type of damselfish.

The crocodilefish gets its name from its flat head and intricate skin pattern that resembles a crocodile's tough hide. The fish's camouflage, including the iris lappets over its eyes, helps it sneak up on its next meal.
