"The fish with the small kebab skewers"
We humans might say: “I have a frog in my throat” and cough so we can breathe freely again. For predatory fish, it’s just as unpleasant to have a cowfish in your throat as its two horns make it harder for predators to swallow. The cowfish also has a toxin in its skin that it releases into the water when in danger.
