Why, dear reader, must you NEVER EVER trust fish?
1) They spend all their time in the water where we canât see them.
2) Some are as big as a busâthat is not okay.
3) We don't know what they're teaching in their "schools."
4) They are likely plotting our doom.
This nature-guide-gone-wrong is a hilarious, off-the-rails exploration of the seemingly innocent animals that live in the water.
