Puffer fish do not have traditional scales like many other fish species. Instead, their skin is covered with a tough layer of dermal denticles, which are small, tooth-like structures that provide protection. This unique adaptation helps them defend against predators, as they can inflate their bodies and deter threats with their spiny appearance.
