This fish swims slowly, especially because propulsion is provided by the dorsal and anal fins. The caudal is used as a rudder.
On the other hand, it is very mobile and can easily sneak into different corals or rocks.
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
