Nope. Maybe it's my ethnic upbringing based on my ancestors' beliefs.
Chicken is poultry; beef, pork and veal are meat; and fish is anything from the sea, other than crustaceans.

I don't see what your ethnicity would have anything to do with it. It seemed to me that you were simply mistaken about the definition of the word animal. As I know it animal means any creature in the kingdom animalia, and I thought that was what it was commonly understood to mean. That's what onesnowyowl was pointing out: fish are animals(because they're in the kingdom animalia).
