The Greater Weever doesn’t care about the latest global crisis: it’s too busy burying its head in the sand. In shallow waters, the Greater Weever sets its environment to craft the perfect surprise attack, stealthily burying itself in sand and awaiting its ""meal ticket."" When the moment arrives, it swiftly emerges to claim its unsuspecting prey.

Don’t let this fish's modest size fool you: its sting packs a mean punch. If you come into contact with its poisonous spines, you can expect intense pain in the wound site, as well as full-body symptoms like fever, chills, fainting, headaches, sweating, nausea and cardiac arrhythmia. If you speak ye olde anglo saxon, its name will serve as a warning with “weever” originating from the word “wivre” meaning “viper.”
