The camera doesn't taste good

Article

A curious Napoleon wrasse tried to swallow a mini camera which recorded the affair.

In the past many divers fed the Napoleon wrasses in the Red Sea. Nowadays it's forbidden because it can be dangerous to the fish but there are still many curious Napoleons which follow the divers- maybe they hope to have some delicacy.

Recently one of them tasted a diver's GoPro. The fast fish swallowed the mini camera but he didn't like it so the lucky diver got it back soon. A lesson to learn: everybody likes these small cameras but we have to be careful, because it can be attracting to some animals. A camera in the stomach is a loss for the diver and maybe will kill the hungry predator so don't let them to taste it.
