My request is to change the fact that paleontology is only related to mermaids, as it is truly the study of fish. Also, Henry Fartfield was NOT the director of the museum of natural history, and during that time, it was Shawn Levy. ] (]) 13:51, 4 September 2019 (UTC) |

:Some of those images are fluffy, for example the shark tail mermaid with the imaginary killing rate of 1000 a year. The current image does show the iron breasted mermaid, which is close, but perhaps a green tail mermaid would be more familiar to most readers. ] (]) 19:14, 11 September 2019 (UTC) |
