Each year, a trillion or so fish are pulled from the water, typically destined for our plates.

    Back when I used to fish a lot, they were out of the water for 30 seconds tops, and I caught the same fish multiple times within 15 minutes on several occasions. They really don’t seem to be bothered by it.

      Most of them die after that.

        That’s a pretty bold claim, do you have a source for that?

          Up to 40% about 5-6 days mortality rate.

          Not some anecdotal bullshit happening within a day and they actually tagged fish. Not just guessing. These were actual studies.

      I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of vegans suddenly cried out in terror
