With a hydrodynamic rapier for a nose and over 1,000 pounds of fin-pumping muscle, the swordfish can reach speeds of over 60 miles per hour —making it one of the fastest fish on Earth.

Swordfish are a popular sport fish of the billfish category, though elusive. They are elongated, round-bodied, and lose all teeth and scales by adulthood.

The swordfish is named after its sword-like bill. They rely on their speed and agility to catch their prey.
