Sailfish have long pointy noses, or bills, primarily to aid in hunting. Their elongated bills help them slash through schools of smaller fish, making it easier to catch prey. Additionally, the shape of the bill may enhance their hydrodynamics, allowing for faster swimming speeds during pursuit. This adaptation is crucial for their survival in competitive marine environments.
