Original Note:
Misleading: Hanako’s age has never been officially confirmed, as the lead scientist (Masayoshi Hiro) neglected to publish their findings. Additionally, “using scales is the least accurate method of aging carp", which outputs unreliable test results. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/worlds-oldest-fish-hanako/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanako_(fish)
