I made a box shaped fish with fins using my pencil

Describe A Boxfish |
|---|
Boxfish which is also known as cowfish accompany with hard dotted black body which stays in shallow water bodies like the ocean. Why there are known as the cowfish are because of thier hornlike projections on some of thier heads.
Where Do They live |
|---|
Yellow box fish lives in deep water bodies like the ocean behind hard rocks beneath water surface and only comes out in search of algae and crustaceans. There are salt bodied aquatic animals that live mostly in deep waters.
Is it easily seen |
|---|
Box fishes are not easily seen because of their kind of habitat. They live in oceans and behind rocks and are rarely seen. They're are somehow found in zoos mainly kept as an attraction to tourists.
Have you seen one before if yes where? |
|---|
I have seen them in movies and pictures not in real life, I think they're not really common here in my country. I have seen some other aquatic animals but for box fish it's my first time hearing of the name.
Are they important to man and what significant role do they play |
|---|
Box fishes are eaten by many because of its nutritional value. Apart from the nutritional value they're kept in the zoo's which in return gets revenue to the nation. Most of the boxfish are kept as pet in some of the homes.
If they are dangerous to man |
|---|
They're not dangerous unless you attack them which they blow themselves up to release ostracitoxin which are very poisonous to the health. Box fish are lovely and friendly when especially when they're kept as pet
Some part of the country eat it, tell us have you eaten it before |

Just asked my mom about the box fish and she said we consume them alot here at home. I looked at her and told her the toxins the fish produces. She said the fresh ones seems poisonous but the dried ones are nutritious.
This contest is really of great benefit to me because have researched so many about the box fish and its habitat. Thank you for going through my post
