Hammerhead shark.

LOL! Another funny online quiz - this time from the World Wildlife Fund.

What kind of fish are you?

I think I'd rather be a hammerhead...

Dena, based on the results of the quiz, the fish you're closest to is a Atlantic Cod!

You are quite a resilient fish and always hungry! You can grow to between 6 and 25 lbs, and a few of your fellow cod have been recorded weighing in at nearly a whopping 200 lbs. You swim with your mouth open and will eat just about anything including starfish, crabs, squid, worms, and even young cod. A strong swimmer, you can be found anywhere from 70 to 700 feet deep in cooler Atlantic waters. Your color may range from a gray-green to a reddish brown and depending on how deep you swim and environment, you may even change color.

Even though you may be a resilient fish, you are not very quick and face the threat of overfishing. The fisherman is your number one predator, as you have been a popular food choice among many. You may be found in the frozen food isle at the grocers and on plates in restaurants. While many people are working to limit the use of you in food items, your fisheries have been drastically overfished you're your populations are close to collapse.

elissa, based on the results of the quiz, the fish you're closest to is a Bluefin Tuna!

Often referred to as the Porsche of the sea, you can reach speeds of over 50mph, whilst swimming just beneath the water's surface. You are warm-blooded, which is rare among fish, and have incredible migratory ability. You can be found in a large range of habitats -- occupying the cold waters around Newfoundland and Iceland to the warm waters of the tropics. You can grow to 14ft in length, weigh up to 1500 pounds, and live up to 30 years, whilst enjoying a diet of small fish, squid and crustaceans.

Unfortunately, you are also under critical threat from overfishing. As a popular seafood, you can be found in restaurants around the world - especially in sushi dishes - and you are a highly prized sports fish. But as demand exceeds supply, your population levels are endangered. This is reflected in your price as you are considered one of the world's most valuable fish - a fellow bluefin sold for $172,400 at a Tokyo fish market.

I am proud to be (what else) a Bluefin Tuna! (Twin of Shiva and close relative to Tiggirl and Miss Gottawholelottaluv (cue that great guitar riff!)

By the way, I picked the Surf and Turf (and am ditching the Surf). Gimme the steak, baby! :)

Mrs. ElderP, based on the results of the quiz, the fish you're closest to is a Swordfish!

You are a large and powerful migratory fish that can be found in oceanic regions worldwide, including the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. You are cold blooded and have special organs next to your eyes that warm your brain and eyes to improve your vision. You are often identified by your sword, a long flat bill that helps you swim faster, hunt for food, and defend yourself. You can weigh as much as 1400lbs, eat mostly squid, fish, and crustaceans and use your sword-like bill by stunning your prey. You prefer to swim and hunt alone.

You were once a very popular restaurant entree, served at restaurants around the world. While chefs, supermarkets and people have agreed to not eat as many swordfish, you still face overfishing in many parts of the world. It is also difficult to track and manage your population because you tend to swim across international borders.

So, you all better get out of my way or I'll stun you!!
