  1. sucking fish

    A sucking fish, also known as a remora or suckerfish, is a type of marine fish that features a distinctive first dorsal fin which has been modified into a sucker-like organ. This organ allows the fish to adhere itself to larger marine animals like sharks, turtles, and whales, or even ships. Remoras primarily rely on this organ for transportation and also for feeding on the food scraps from their host's meals. They belong to the family Echeneidae.
