Mudskippers are actually fish, but they sure don't act like it. They breathe using special gill chambers and absorb oxygen through their skin like amphibians. Scanning the lumpy mudscape with their periscope-like eyes, they fiercely guard their burrows and leap to impress potential mates. Find out how these land-loving fish carved out a life between sea and shore — and why their strange lifestyle might not be so strange after all. 👉 Donate to KQED, the public media station that makes Deep Look: https://donate.kqed.org/deeplook SIGN UP for Deep Look’s newsletter, Nature Unseen: https://bit.ly/NatureUnseenSignUp SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@KQEDDeepLook?sub_confirmation=1 ---+ Find a transcript on KQED Science: https://www.kqed.org/science/2001332/this-fish-walks-on-land-and-leaps-for-love ---+ More great Deep Look episodes: The Slimy Details Behind Banana Slug Mating https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VGBy04nIjA Release The Brood!
