You've got some explaining to do you, you herring eater you!

Hey if a herring *toots* in the water, does it make a sound? Why, yes it does:

Biologists have linked a mysterious, underwater farting sound to bubbles coming out of a herring's anus. No fish had been known to emit sound from its anus nor to be capable of producing such a high-pitched noise.

Is "farting" the scientific term?

"It was at this point that the team named the noise Fast Repetitive Tick (FRT)."

FRT = Fart...that's funny ha-ha biologist humor

Hah, I thought that they were screaming when I kill them! Maybe the farting odour is a key factor for the good herring smell and taste? Imagine, they have been talking out their ass all this time and we didn’t know it!

maybe they have a language like dolphins, just with their ass.
