Although there is no exact game definition of '''fish''', for simplicity anything that may be ''[[Fishing|fished]]'' is categorized as "a fish" in this wiki, including [[turtle]]s and [[cave lobster]]s. Technically, the game treats these as [[vermin]], but unlike true vermin they are a welcome [[food]] source, and are not hunted by cats (unless they are in suitably shallow water), but must be caught by [[fisherdwarf]]s with the [[fishing]] [[labor]] enabled.  However, as with all vermin, they appear spontaneously (aka "spawn") in any natural water environment and most artificially constructed ones.

The {{k|z}}-status' ''stocks'' screen defines certain (dead) creatures as fish/raw fish. These are subject to [[rotting]]/[[wear]]).

Certain larger creatures are also typically defined as fish even though they are treated as regular [[creature]]s by the game, for instance [[carp]]. They may not be caught by fisherdwarves. These larger fish can interrupt dwarves, attack, and come in [[skeletal]] and [[zombie]] varieties (which can move on land).

Certain larger species are also typically defined as fish even though they are treated as regular [[creature]]s by the game, for instance [[carp]] and [[Longnose gar]], among others. These larger fish may ''not'' be caught by fisherdwarves, but must be killed in combat. They can also be air-drowned by reducing the water they are in to 4/7 or less, like all fish. These aquatic monsters can interrupt dwarves' activities and will gladly attack and kill given half a chance.  In [[evil]] [[Biome|biomes]], they can come in [[skeletal]] and [[zombie]] varieties (which can move on land, among other [[fun]] surprises).

While some vermin fish move across the map in small packs due to the [CLUSTER_NUMBER] creature token, others such as shad have been observed to migrate biannually in 'salmon runs,' filling an entire river with many fish on each tile. This is caused by a combination of the [CLUSTER_NUMBER:1:10] [[creature token]] and the [BIOME:OCEAN_TEMPERATE] and [BIOME:RIVER_TEMPERATE_*] [[biome token]]s.
