    The report assumes that the violent reaction of lobsters to boiling water is a reflex response (i.e. does not involve conscious perception) to noxious stimuli. [ 3 ] A European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) 2005 publication [ 82 ] stated that the largest of decapod crustaceans have complex behaviour, a pain system, considerable learning ...

  4. Pain in fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pain_in_fish

    Fish fulfill several criteria proposed as indicating that non-human animals experience pain. These fulfilled criteria include a suitable nervous system and sensory receptors, opioid receptors and reduced responses to noxious stimuli when given analgesics and local anaesthetics, physiological changes to noxious stimuli, displaying protective motor reactions, exhibiting avoidance learning and ...

  5. Aquatic respiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic_respiration

    In fish, the long bony cover for the gill (the operculum) can be used for pushing water. Some fish pump water using the operculum. Without an operculum, other methods, such as ram ventilation, are required. Some species of sharks use this system. When they swim, water flows into the mouth and across the gills.

  6. Sensory systems in fish - Wikipedia

    Diagrammatic vertical section through the eye of teleost fish. Fish have a refractive index gradient within the lens which compensates for spherical aberration. [4] Unlike humans, most fish adjust focus by moving the lens closer or further from the retina. [5] Teleosts do so by contracting the retractor lentis muscle.

  7. Greeneye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greeneye

    Like many aulopiform fish, greeneyes are hermaphroditic; this is thought to be a great advantage in deep-sea habitats, where the chances of running into a compatible mate are uncertain. Young and larval greeneyes are pelagic rather than benthic, staying within the upper levels of the water column. Hake are known predators of greeneyes.

  8. Fishing light attractor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishing_light_attractor

    Fish are most attracted to true-green light colors, and LEDs do the best job of illuminating this color. A fishing light attractor is a fishing aid that uses lights attached to structures above water or suspended underwater to attract fish and members of their food chain. Fish are typically most attracted to true-green light colors.

  9. Garfish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garfish

    The colour of the body is bluish green with a silvery grey belly and the bones are green. [2] Garfish are pelagic fish which live close to the water surface. They eat small fish and have a migratory pattern similar to that of the mackerel, arriving a short time before the latter to spawn. Their association with mackerel has led to some older ...
