5. The Flatfish

Flatfish, including flounders, exhibit a distinctive adaptation with both of their eyes positioned on the same side of their head. This peculiar arrangement enables them to camouflage seamlessly with the ocean floor, blending in perfectly. Despite their seemingly awkward appearance, flatfish possess remarkable swimming skills, propelling themselves like catapults to swiftly capture their prey. As they grow, their eyes migrate gradually, moving from their original position to one side of the head, aligning with their unique body structure.
