Centenarian fish found, killed, and measured.

PonderingWillow reports that they’ve found one of the oldest creatures in Alaska, and I don’t mean Bob at the barber shop. Actually, I mean one of the former candidates for the oldest creature prize, since she was a 100 or so year old fish who got caught up in a net and then sent to a lab for dissection. Wanna bet that the fishing company is going to spin this into something about helping us learn about the aquaculture that they’re destroying? Of course, this is undeniable proof that fishing companies are engaged in perfectly sustainable practices, right? After all, if a fish can go 100 years without getting caught, there must be hope! Oh, the fish? Yeah, she had to die. How else can you find out how old someone is without cutting them in half and counting the rings? (No, I’m not kidding, that’s pretty much how they do it) Oh well, there’s probably another old fish out there, and don’t worry, the caring environmentalists at Trident Seafoods are going to find him!
