Humuhumunukunukuapuaa Ousted

The Humuhumunukunukuapuaa (or Hawaiian trigger fish) has long been the state fish of Hawaii and beloved by locals and tourists alike. However, as of 2006, this article explains out that the state fish has been dethroned and replaced with the Humuhumu (which is known for looking like a pig and being unpalatable). While this decision was made, the information was not generally released to the public, no doubt due to the amount of publicity and products surrounding the Humuhumunukunukuapuaa.
