A killifish is a small, resilient freshwater fish known for being one of the fastest-growing vertebrates on the planet. What makes them fascinating is their ability to adapt to some of the most extreme environments, like temporary ponds or even areas prone to drying up. They thrive by growing and reproducing quickly, often maturing in just a few weeks.

Some species can even survive in harsh conditions by hatching only after the rain returns, making them a symbol of perseverance and adaptability.
