Celebrating 29k human followers of our 0 person island by sharing about local fish. Patagonia Toothfish, like other notothenioid fishes, are able to survive in freezing, ice-laden waters of the S. Ocean due to the presence of an antifreeze glycoprotein in blood. It doesn’t help against Weddell Seals

Heard Island makes me learn new stuff - all good.
But don't tell our current US Administration of these remarkable toothfishes. They'll import them and make Americans put them under the hoods of our cars in winter. Obviously with ginormous tariffs on same.😲
Thanks for a bit of uplift in trying times.
