Pacific Halibut

When halibut are about an inch long, an amazing transformation begins: the left eye moves progressively over the head to join the right eye, so that both eyes are on the same side. Virtually all halibut are right-eyed, meaning that their eyes are on the dark upper side of their body. Rarely (about 1 in 20,000) halibut are left-eyed, meaning their eyes and dark pigment are on the left side of their body.
