An Atlantic puffin stands on a rocky surface with about a dozen small sandeels held in its colorful beak. Atlantic puffins have coarse tongues and spines on their upper palette which enables them to carry multiple fish at a time. This means they can carry more food for their young and feed them without the need for regurgitation.
