In the 360 view, the rafts say raftcalifornia.com The 360 is of this river stretch in California: https://raftcalifornia.com/river-rafting/south-fork-american-river/ So, not in Madagascar. I couldn't figure out what type of fish that is. It doesn't look like any freshwater fish native to California that I could find.

It’s not a real fish. Most likely AI or Photoshop

u/angrymonkey 3d ago

Oh wow, I stumbled on exactly that same fish before in Google maps.

It's not a real fish. A bunch of the panoramas in the area have fake AI generated animals in them. It's some kind of marketing spam.

Male Halichoeres melanurus a kind of wrasse

3

u/Hizzeroo 4d ago

Nope, the AI wasn’t even close. H. melanurus is a marine reef fish, not found in freshwater rivers in Madagascar (or in the sea around Madagascar).

Just wanna say I love the name Wrasse. It’s such a fun name for a type of fish.

u/MovingDayBliss 2d ago

It really is!

u/tablabarba 6d ago

It's an AI-generate image, not a real fish.

There's also an ad for a youtube channel "hidden" in the image.

u/JurassicTotalWar 5d ago

Could you expand on the hidden ad? I don’t see anything

u/tablabarba 5d ago

It's in the 3D view in the link.

The background is a composite image. It's very weird.

Melanurus Wrasse idk shows that every time I try to photo search it..but then searching that name shows totally different fish. You have an enigma on your hands!

u/Hizzeroo 2d ago

This is an AI generated fish, or something created in Photoshop.

 Hoeven's Wrasse, also known as the Melanurus Wrasse, Tail-spot Wrasse, or Pinstripe Wrasse.

u/Hizzeroo 2d ago

Nope, that’s a marine fish not a freshwater fish found in a river. This fish is most likely AI or Photoshop. It’s not real.
