Phys.org ...Racist White men hate gar fish
A study published in Fisheries Magazine, a journal of the American Fisheries Society, explores how colonialist attitudes toward native fishes were rooted in elements of racism and sexism. It describes how those attitudes continue to shape fisheries management today, often to the detriment of native fishes.
The study, led by the University of California, Davis, with Nicholls State University and a national team of fisheries researchers, found that nearly all states have policies that encourage overfishing native species. The study maintains that the term "rough fish" is pejorative and degrading to native fish.
"That has bothered me for a long time," said lead author Andrew Rypel, co-director of the Center for Watershed Sciences and the Peter B. Moyle and California Trout Chair in Coldwater Fish Ecology at UC Davis. He and others have been disturbed by images of "glory killings" of native fish that periodically pop up on the internet, as well as the lump categorization of less preferred species as "rough" or "trash" fish.
"When you trace the history of the problem, you quickly realize it's because the field was shaped by white men, excluding other points of view," Rypel said. "Sometimes you have to look at that history honestly to figure out what to do."

Garfish are hated because they taste bad and they eat fish that taste good. It's called logic. But then logic is a sign of white men being involved. So the author has a point.

It’s a shame with all of this hate for white people the author failed to notice the cultural appropriation so unabashedly on display for everyone to see. Alligators are being oppressed by these gar.
Sometimes you just have to look at someone’s motivations for doing something honestly to figure out what everything means.
Prosthelytizing with fish?

Are these people just trolling using Soros funding or are they this detached from reality? Probably both

Congratulations, Racism is over..
When people talk about there’s work to do this is what they are talking about (white people don’t like gar fish)
We have seen the end of racism in America in our time!!

How do we get a federal grant to study the fish we want? Make them racist.

This is so fricking retarded.
There are plenty of gar because they are hard a shite to clean and their meat taste, meh.
This is so dumb.
With that said there are plenty of good eating fish that are easy to clean.

You can't fix gar to taste as good as crappie or bream or even bass. If you could, why bother? It's too much work. Do you ever do any work to a white perch to make it taste good? No! Because you don't have to!

Now I love gar balls with gar gravy...so is that definitive proof I'm not a racist?
