Dugong Tries to Shake off Suckerfish

Occurred on November 1, 2018 / Red Sea, Egypt

Info from Licensor: "An endangered Dugong wallowing in the sand on the sea floor in an attempt to get rid of pesky remoras. Dugongs behave that way often in the presence of divers believing remoras, or suckerfish, removed during wallowing will change host and attach to the diver. Sometimes it works."
