Shorthorn sculpin — size comparison — facts and sources

The shorthorn sculpin is a bottom-dwelling fish of cool seas, occurring in areas including the eastern Atlantic and Baltic. Large pectoral fins flank its broad, spiny head, and irregular blotches cover its body.

It hunts fish and large crustaceans. Camouflage conceals it against the substrate, from which it can attack nearby prey. Broad pectoral fins help maintain position near the bottom.
