Don’t search Hawaiian fish markets.

One of the most underestimated animals is the Cape Buffalo. If you miss, you're f'd.

Yep, Cannon 5D with a big lens to keep your distance. 1200mm if you can carry it.

Agreed. I should qualify that, while on safari, the only thing I was armed with was camera equipment.

Darn you beat me to my joke!

Not me. That being said, I refuse to eat veal.

Veal, yum yum yum

I actually feel more guilty looking at them in glass cages than I do eating them.

Mmmmm reef fish….
If only I could get live Achilles tangs at $5.00 a pound

Sometimes I eat my plate of fish in front of my aquarium...just to remind my fish how lucky they have it.

I don't like fish

Didn't keep Lobsters and didn't have close feelings for my shrimp...

I refuse to eat sea food because fish are friends not food. . . at least that's what I say to get out of eating yucky sea food I don't want to eat. . .

vlangel · Feb 14, 2023

Hey, if it's on my plate, I'm gonna eat it! If it's in my aquarium I'm gonna nurture it!

Tonight, while eating a meal of baked salmon and sweet potato, I couldn't help but feel a bit guilty, given my love for this hobby? In fact, this feeling hits me every time I eat fish. I mean, I still do, but still...

Anyone else experience this, or just me? A lot is discussed here about our favorite specimens to keep in our little oceans, but not much regarding the ones we like to enjoy on the dinner plate. What's yours?

Don’t worry, I used to ask the question ‘Do fish feel sad when they see us eating fish?’… I no longer eat fish fingers infront of my fish. Instead I do it infront of my corals

That's kindness right there!

I eat my fish right in front of them so they know who’s boss!

I do feel that a lot, except if it’s fried of course. Call me petty I’m a sucker for fried fish

I've been fishing since I was a kid and now it seems when I catch something, for instance crappie .Love to catch it and it's a great eating fish too can't help but feel sorry them.Took break from lobster fishing this season, bet they're happy about that.

I love my fish and Inverts, but am looking forward to striper and blue crab season!
