LoL!!! That seems so funny to me! Why on earth would a fish have reason (or be capable) of fearing man? I can see this in higher mammals like deer and bear - but FISH? What possible exposure could fish have to man that would allow them to "learn" to be fearful of humans? Fishing??? Do you really think that fish that are caught and released go back and "teach" their offspring to be fearful of what happened to them?
