My speech.

And this is the words. 
I had a good time doing it but i did not want to do it at all.
My brother helped me with a large amount. 


What is a red lipped batfish?

Have you ever seen a red lipped batfish or a Galapagos batfish? Have you ever even heard about it? Well regardless of whether or not you have or haven’t, I'm going to be talking about them today. This fish is so strange and flabbergasting, with its unreal body shape, but looks nothing like this (the image in the slideshow)

This is the Red Lipped Batfish!

The scientific name of red lipped batfish was given to it by Charles Darwin, who was best known for his contribution to the science of evolution.

 The name it’s best known by was given to the fish for its lips that make it look like it’s wearing bright red lipstick.

The red lipped batfish is a bottom dweller which means it lives on the seafloor. The batfish is a poor swimmer, which is quite ironic given that it's a fish. This is because it has adapted to walk on the ocean floor, using its pectoral fins for support.

The red lipped batfish is part of the anglerfish family. This is because of its lure-like projection that sticks out on the bat fish's head.

 It uses this projection to lure in fish, like a fisherman with a fishing rod.

The Red lipped batfish is carnivorous. It’s diet mainly consists of shrimps, small fish, and crabs,  as well as other small sea creatures found on the ocean floor.

Finally, I wish to share with you my experience when I first met a red lipped batfish with my family. Here’s a very real photo of my siblings and I hanging out with Bob the red lipped batfish. 

Thank you for listening to my speech, does anyone have any questions or comments?
