They also took a crap in it! :0

You think only fish?

Yes, which is why I have a Popeil Fish Piss warning system watching my water. :)

WC Fields had an entirely different take on it!

does that make it better for me, fish are supposed to be good for you, perhaps fish pee is good for you too :>).

So have I ! :)

1) Yes, it is called the water cycle. However, some measures are taken to avoid that fish urine is present in the water that you drink. One solution is to take water at the spring or to have it filtered and treated. If you are (accidentally) drinking the water of a river, what usually happens is dilution. But different rivers have different water quality. 2) This does not always work if there are a lot of fishes, like in fish farms: "Stanford researchers help predict where the 'icky' stuff -- fish urine, fecal matter and uneaten feed -- will end up; Research is finding that the wastes are carried greater distances that previously assumed" "If you are a fish eater, it's likely that the salmon you had for dinner was not caught in the wild, but was instead grown in a mesh cage submerged in the open water of oceans or bays. Fish farming, a relatively inexpensive way to provide cheap protein to a growing world population, now supplies, by some estimates, 30 percent of the fish consumed by humans." "Intuitively, it seems a good idea—the more fish grown in pens, the fewer need be taken from wild stocks in the sea. But marine aquaculture can have some nasty side effects, especially when the pens are set near sensitive coastal environments. All those fish penned up together consume massive amounts of commercial feed, some of which drifts off uneaten in the currents. And the crowded fish, naturally, defecate and urinate by the tens of thousands, creating yet another unpleasant waste stream. The wastes can carry disease, causing damage directly. Or the phosphate and nitrates in the mix may feed an algae bloom that sucks the oxygen from the water, leaving it uninhabitable, a phenomenon long associated with fertilizer runoff."
