Fish are not stupid, they even have emotions, memories and are sometimes smarter than some primates!
Sébastien Moro, scientific popularizer and author, explains it to us.
He gives the example of the salmon: when it migrates to its place of birth to reproduce in turn, it is able to remember a journey that it has only made once, two years ago.
Few mammals are capable of such a feat.
The cleaning wrasses also have a remarkable memory: they remember the fish from which they remove the parasites and even how their last meeting was!
Pisces also have emotions comparable to other animals.
Studies have shown that if they are not happy, they can go into lethargy and experience genuine depression.
Sébastien Moro defeats the clichés about our finned friends in his comic strip
Les paupières des poisson
, and in the video of our partner Brut.
