Edible fish

Korea style raw fish

Fish as a food describes the edible parts of water-dwelling, cold-blooded vertebrates with gills, as well as certain other water-dwelling animals such as mollusks, crustaceans, and shellfish.

There are over 27,000 species of fish, making them the most diverse group of vertebrates. However, only a small number of the total species are commonly eaten. Fish are consumed as food all over the world, but fresh fish are moreso in areas close to seas, rivers, and lakes.

Typically, these prohibit the use of nets and the catching of fish with hooks not in the mouth.
