13132565. Orange-dotted tuskfish, Choerodon anchorago, taking a small bivalve

Orange-dotted tuskfish, Choerodon anchorago, taking a small bivalve (shell) in the mouth. They use to breack this mollusk shells on hard corals. In this process they are using a tool; crack open shellfish, extract food that is out of reach. Tool use by animals is a phenomenon in which an animal uses any kind of tool in order to achieve a goal such as acquiring food and water, grooming, defense, recreation or construction. Originally thought to be a skill possessed only by humans, some tool use requires a sophisticated level of cognition. There is considerable discussion about the definition of what constitutes a tool and therefore which behaviours can be considered true examples of tool use. A wide range of animals, including mammals, birds, fish, cephalopods, and insects, are considered to use tools. Australia Date
