Most fish, as we know, cannot live without water. Indeed we often speak of people whoare out of their natural element as being like fish out of water. If a fish is brought out of itsnatural element it gasps for a time and then dies because as soon as its gills stop being wet, itcannot breathe. But there is one strange fish which often leaves the water, travels inland, andactually climbs trees. It is called the climbing perch and lives in Burma and India. The fish always has a good reason for leaving its watery home. It never thinks ofwandering unless it fears that there is a drought at hand. Since it does not want to be stranded,it sets out to look for a deeper pool or river. It has spiny fins which help it to walk over the landin search of a new home. To keep it alive, it has at each side of its head a kind of store-cupboard where it can storesupplies of water. This keeps its gills wet, and gives it a chance to breathe until it has reachedthe safety of another pool. Perhaps the perch may be a long time in finding a new pool. If this happens the wise littlefish knows that there is water to be found in the hole of a tree. It keeps this as a last hope and,if its store of water is nearly at an end, it begins to climb a tree.
