I think that the appearance of a Barracuda is much more menacing than what they actually are.
They are sort of scowly… and they definitely lurk or even follow divers as they move about the reef.
And then, there’s that whole opening and closing of the mouth thing.
But all that I read says… that they are motivated by curiosity and the mouth things is to assist their respiration.
There are no reports of unprovoked attacks on divers and the only substantiated incidents involved spearfishing.
