    My question is, how drunk were they when someone was like “let’s give cocaine to salmon and see what happens”

    I thought this was dumb at first, but then realised these researchers must have procured some lab-grade cocaine for testing purposes.

    Imagine how far the salmon would have swam id they’d been given all the cocaine they said they did.
