Zingel
Zingel is a genus of fish in the family Percidae. They are long and slender, reaching 12 to 48 cm in length. They are found in rivers and streams in Europe.[1] They feed mainly on aquatic invertebrates such as crustaceans and insect larvae, and will also eat small fish. While they were all classed as endangered or vulnerable in the past, environmental improvements have allowed some to be reclassified to least concern.

gollark: Perhaps. I suppose I may be assuming conscious stuff at work here when it might not be.
gollark: The orbital immutability strike replaces you with a killed version of yourself.
gollark: Wait, assigned? MUTABLE STATE. INITIATING ORBITAL IMMUTABILITY STRIKE.
gollark: > also I'm pretty sure it's a case of in-group/out-group-ismWhat is? I mean, our CS class didn't, presumably, have someone going "hmm yes you are of incorrect gender/ethnicity, no computer science for you" - people just *didn't sign up*.
gollark: Yes, I ignored it because I patternmatched it to "identity-politics-y complaining again".
