Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
Though they may look unassuming, brown trout are actually one of the most diverse vertebrates in the world! Populations and individuals can look wildly different from each other, to the point where many groups were often mislabeled as entirely separate species, and they have a remarkable ability to adapt to any environment. In fact, there is more genetic diversity between populations of British brown trout than there is between any population of the human race.

If you're ever by a stream with a lot of trout, keep your eyes open for the little souls of Victorian businessmen that swirl about in there. You see, they didn't have enough fun in life, so this is how they make up for it. Or so I'm told.
