Mudskippers are able to live both in water and on land.
Mudskippers are members of the subfamily Oxudercinae within the family Gobiidae (Gobies). They are considered as amphibious fish, a type of fish that can use its pectoral fins to "walk" on land. Being amphibious, they are uniquely adapted to intertidal habitats. Mudskippers are quite active when out of water, feeding and interacting with one another, they are known to fight to defend their own territories.
Mudskippers are found in tropical, subtropical and temperate regions, including the Indo-Pacific and the Atlantic coast of Africa.
