Comment on fish is fish

Huh??

There are more identified species of cichlids in lake Victoria than there are of all terrestrial vertebrates.

There are different species of trout and Salmon that are outwardly identical (need to look for throat teeth).

An icthyologist did not have say in writing this meme.

Not to mention mammals are just land fish. We are all fish.

    Too true! Some people say there’s no such thing as a fish. I prefer to expand the definition. We simply brought the water with us.

If fish aren’t real how can icthyologists be real?

  Who says fish are “real”? In the Oxford dictionary of underwater life there’s no such thing as a fish!
