Default Fish farting may not just be hot air...

Here's a weird article that I just stumbled upon.

Quote:
Biologists have linked a mysterious, underwater farting sound to bubbles coming out of a herring's anus. No fish had been known to emit sound from its anus nor to be capable of producing such a high-pitched noise.

"It sounds just like a high-pitched raspberry," says Ben Wilson of the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada...
I would like to apply for a $50,000 Govt. grant to study this for one year.
