Daily fish fact #748
Milkfish!
Tumblr media
This species is the only extant species in its whole taxonomic family, Chanidae. Mature adults and young larvae live in the ocean, but only a few-week old juveniles will in fact migrate to brackish estuaries and mangrove forests, even upstream into freshwater! They migrate back to the ocean upon maturity.

Bangus is often considered the national fish of the country, since an estimated 3 kilos of bangus are consumed per person every year*! Its white, flaky flesh is tender when cooked, and although notorious for having so many bones, fishers have long found ways to remove them & make them easier to eat.
A common preparation of bangus is splitting it from its dorsal side or back, and opening it to reveal the fatty, bangus belly “center.” Whether you have tinapang or smoked bangus, marinated bangus, dried, fried, or even fresh for bangus kilawin or kinilaw… bangus is best split, and shared :) Printable: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1420966942/bangus-in-baybayin-filipino-food Artprint: https://society6.com/product/bangus-in-baybayin_framed-mini-art-print *Philippine Statistics Authority, 2018

In honor of Filipino heritage month, I aim to learn more about the culture where my mom's (and dad's dad) family grew up in. My mom is from the Philippines and grew up there, and my dad's dad grew up there. My dad has visited twice, and I have never been. I have family that live there and family FROM there, yet I never engaged with the culture all too much because this is sadly America, lol. Day 3: Philippine Animals Here we have the Philippine tarsier, bangus/milkfish, butiki, Philippine cockatoo, and the Philippine fox bat. The Tarsier: A primate that once used to be widespread, now mainly resides in the Philippines. Some anthropologists (and some zoologists) claim it to be more related to a lemur, some say it's more related to your average monkey. Others believe it's a whole species entirely and cannot be classified as either. Regardless, the creatures are nocturnal, with large eyes that take up most of it's head. They are insectivorous, but are known to eat lizards, small snakes, and small bats. Conservation status is critically endangered, with possible threats of extinction due to them not being able to breed in captivity very successfully. Milkfish/Bangus: The last known Chanidae species, referred to as the Philippine's national fish (not officially stated). Despite this (unofficially) being the Philippines national fish, there are many ways they farm, cook, and process the fish. These are quite an easily accessible food, although they are known to be on the bonier side anatomically. They live about 15 years and in schools around reefs, although migrate to fresh water as "teenagers" before returning to sea to reproduce. Conservation status is least concerned, as they do seem to spread out almost everywhere. Butiki: These plump lizards are widespread throughout Southeast Asia. They have delicate skin and are usually found in shades of yellow-brown with hints of red/orange. My mom's mom referred to them as "Jesus lizards", as they usually come down to "kiss the floor" (make ticking sounds to communicate) at around time of prayer in people's homes (which they can live in). She also said gamblers would keep a butiki in a matchbox to bring them good luck in gambling, and when the lizard died, they stopped gambling; but in their gambling time, it is said they always won. Conservation status is least concerned, as they are spread throughout Southeast Asia, and are even considered invasive in Hawaii. Philippine Cockatoo: Not much is known about these native birds. They are a yellow-white with hints of possible yellow and red in their feathers. They are usually a foot long with a slightly over-half wingspan. They sound like most typical cockatoos but much quieter. Their conservation status is critically endangered due to the cage-bird trade and have terribly small populations in the wild in certain areas of the Philippines and due to this, not much is known. Luckily, conservation is possible. Philippine Fox Bat: These large bats are probably the largest species of bat in the entire world. They are herbivorous, usually consuming things like fruits (mainly figs) and leaves. They are nocturnal and sometimes engage with each other to mate and/or fight, but most times they are solitary. Not much is known about their reproduction, other than most times the babies appear around late spring early summer. They are hunted quite frequently by predators and carry bat-related parasites and diseases, causing humans to hunt and kill them. Conservation status is endangered, but luckily not critically.

Underscores, Wallsocket
New music Wednesday
Each track within this album stands out as its own unique story within the overarching concept of the fictional town Wallsocket, Michigan. Yet, as a complete work, Wallsocket emerges as an exceptional achievement in the realms of world-building, indietronica, and hyperpop, showcasing perfectly the artistic capabilities of April Harper Grey.
