PETA is at it again with another absurd anti-eating meat or any kind campaign. This time they want to educate kids to calling fish “sea kittens”.

I had my own sea kittens, once. Well, brook kittens at least. At last glance
they were all bobbing up and down in the water cascading over the small
stones and on out into the big brook, men call river.
Here is what the note to USF&W says:
The Fish and Wildlife Service’s promotion of fishing is a glaring contradiction of its mission. Neurobiologists tell us that fish have nervous systems that comprehend and respond to pain, and that, when it comes to the ability to feel pain, fish are just like dogs, cats, and all other animals. Dr. Donald Broom, a scientific advisor to the British government, explains, “The scientific literature is quite clear. Anatomically, physiologically and biologically, the pain system in fish is virtually the same as in birds and mammals.” Scientists have created a detailed map of pain receptors in fish’s mouths and all over their bodies.
In light of these facts, I urge you to do the right thing by adhering to the FWS’ stated mission to protect fish. Stop your department’s promotion of fishing! I urge you to instead advocate nonviolent pastimes, such as bird-watching, canoeing, or hiking.

Peta is a misinformed group of people who have no clue of the real world.
Walt Disney is dead and so is Elvis.
I think I’ll have a sea kitten for breakfast and go check my traps.
