==Risk of injury== Many [[Human impact on the environment|anthropogenic]] activities, such as [[pile driving]] or even [[seismic waves]], can create high-intensity sound waves that cause internal injury to fish that possess a gas bladder. Physoclisti can not expel air quickly enough from the gas bladder, the organ most susceptible to sonic damage, thus making it difficult for them to escape major injury. Physostomes, on the other hand, ''can'' release air from their gas bladder expeditiously enough to protect it; nevertheless, they can not relieve pressure in their other vital organs, and are therefore also vulnerable to injury.<ref name="Halvorsen">{{Cite journal |last1=Halvorsen|first1=Michele B.|last2=Casper|first2=Brandon M.|last3=Matthews|first3=Frazer|last4=Carlson|first4=Thomas J. |last5=Popper |first5=Arthur N.|date=2012-12-07|title=Effects of exposure to pile-driving sounds on the lake sturgeon, Nile tilapia and hogchoker |journal=Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences|volume=279|issue=1748|pages=4705β4714 |doi=10.1098/rspb.2012.1544 |issn=0962-8452|pmc=3497083|pmid=23055066}}</ref> Some of the commonly seen injuries include ruptured gas bladder and renal [[Haemorrhage]].
