Fish of the day (carpe diem).
On the morning of Thursday 16 of October, Te Papa's Curator Vertebrates came in and asked Curator Fishes if he knew anything about the fish lying out in the carpark up at the Tory Street building.
Worried that it might be a collection item, they went out and had a look, and there, lying on the ground, slightly dehydrated and worse for wear, was a small (9 cm) silver fish.
