Social media posts on ‘dangerous’ fish in the Red Sea
Divers and social media users shared pictures of barracuda fish in the Red Sea in Egypt.

After speculations about the extent of the danger of this fish, and whether its appearance in the waters of the Red Sea causes concern, the Environmental Affairs Agency of the Red Sea governorate said that “the appearance of the barracuda fish in the Red Sea is normal.”
 

It stressed that this fish is one of the endemic species in the waters of the Red Sea and does not pose any danger, and what is being circulated as “the most dangerous and fierce,” leads to unnecessary confusion and fear.

The Environmental Affairs Agency added that divers in the waters of the Red Sea organize diving trips to see barracuda fish and sharks in the Al-Akhawain and Al-Zabargad areas.

The privately-owned Al-Watan newspaper quoted a source in the agency as saying that “specialists know very well that the waters of the Red Sea contain about 1,144 species of fish, and that 14% of these fish are endemic species in the Red Sea environment, including the barracuda and the shark.”
