New sign of global warming: fish species native to Florida migrates to Indiana ... by gimleteye

Researchers erred this week believing they had discovered a brand new species of cave-dwelling fish in Mammoth Cave's southern Indiana regions. A fish with an anus on its forehead -- endemic in Florida -- has migrated from Florida waters to Indiana. Read about it here.

Florida anus-headed man-cave fish
The Hoosier cavefish displays an anus on its forehead just like the endemic Florida man-cave fish. Unlike the "walking" catfish which is evolving human-like motor skills, Florida's anus-headed man-cave fish is adapting toward reasoning skills.



Researchers will now be examining man-caves in other Southern states for signs of global-warming induced migration. Eye On Miami will be setting up a hot-line to report any anus-headed creatures found in the region.
