Pufferfish have few natural predators due to their unique defense mechanism of inflating their bodies and producing toxic compounds, such as tetrodotoxin. However, some animals, like larger fish, sharks, and certain sea birds, have developed resistance to the toxins and can consume pufferfish. Additionally, humans are known to catch and eat pufferfish, particularly in dishes like fugu, but this requires careful preparation to avoid poisoning. Overall, their toxicity serves as a significant deterrent against most potential predators.
