Ghost_MH Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 If capybara get to be fish in the eyes of the Lord, then why not bees in the eyes of the state. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If jellyfish and stingrays count as fish and can sting you a bee can also count as a fish because it can sting you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodyHell Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 This is a good thing, but will it hold up? My wife's friend keeps honey bees, and they are quite an incredible species. I don't know a ton about them, but working with them is a ton of fun (with a suit, not all crazy person like my wifes friends, who just wear a face mask), and they need to be protected if we have any hope of saving the environment.

Amusingly, of all of those, I'd be willing to bet puffin tastes more like fish than any of those others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
