A fish is any member of a paraphyletic group of organisms that consist of all gill-bearing aquatic craniate animals that lack limbs with digits. Included in this definition are the living hagfish, lampreys, and cartilaginous and bony fish, as well as various extinct related groups. Most fish are ectothermic ("cold-blooded"), allowing their body temperatures to vary as ambient temperatures change, though some of the large active swimmers like white shark and tuna can hold a higher core temperature. Fish are abundant in most bodies of water. They can be found in nearly all aquatic environments, from high mountain streams (e.g., char and gudgeon) to the abyssal and even hadal depths of the deepest oceans (e.g., gulpers and anglerfish). With 33,100 described species, fish exhibit greater species diversity than any other group of vertebrates.
Fish are an important resource for humans worldwide, especially as food. Commercial and subsistence fishers hunt fish in wild fisheries (see fishing) or farm them in ponds or in cages in the ocean (see aquaculture). They are also caught by recreational fishers, kept as pets, raised by fishkeepers, and exhibited in public aquaria. Fish have had a role in culture through the ages, serving as deities, religious symbols, and as the subjects of art, books and movies.

Bandwagon, it's coming into town
To turn your life around
And take you to the places that you once
Could only dream of
They'll be standing right there before your eyes
And the heroes that you worship
They'll be riding with you, up there by their side
On the bandwagon, it's rolling into town
Gathering the crowds to show them all the places that they once
Could only dream of and put them right before their very eyes
In the stories that they're selling for some pennies and a little of our time
Well, well do I hear you say, I'm only dreaming
That I'm staring out the window letting all my life just pass me by
In my defence, listen to me I have never ever stopped believing
That there's a better world out there waiting
And that all I have to do is hitch a ride on the Bandwagon
It's coming to my door
I've been on it before
And it took me to the places that I once
Could only dream of they were standing
Right there before my eyes
And I can tell you the stories for
Some pennies and a little of your time
Bandwagon its coming into town
To turn your life around
And take you to the places that you once
Could only dream of
They'll be standing there before your eyes
And the heroes that you worship
They'll be riding with you, up there by their side
On the bandwagon
Here it comes
