Walking fish are able to spend extended periods of time out of water. These fish use a number of ways of locomotion, including springing, snake-like movement, or tripod walking. The mudskippers are probably the best land-adapted of modern fish. It is able to spend days moving about on land and can even climb modest heights. The Climbing gourami supports itself on the edges of its gills and pushes itself by its fins and tail. Some reports claim that it can also climb trees. The "walking catfish" wriggles and uses its fins to 'walk'. Walking Catfish have a respiratory system that allows it to live out of water for several days.
