Herring
 
This from the National Geographic Website:

"Herring may use an unusual form of communication—flatulence—to form protective shoals at night without giving away their location to predators, according to a recent study."

If you don't believe me, and if you are bored to death, you can actually hear a herring "break wind" at the following site.
