A type of large fish found in warm ocean waters, often caught for food, or plural of grouper (one who groups things together).
From Portuguese 'garoupa,' possibly from a Tupi word. The fish was named by Portuguese sailors and traders in the 16th century, who encountered it in tropical waters and brought the name back to Europe.
Groupers are master architects of the ocean—some species actually work together with other fish to herd prey into tight groups before attacking, essentially 'grouping' food sources like underwater cowboys.
