Humuhumunukunukuapuaa no longer the state fish of Hawaii

The reign of humuhumunukunukuapuaa as the offical fish of the Aloha State is over, as AP reports.

When it was designated as the state fish of Hawaii in 1984, what was not known to most Hawaiians was that the long-named fish had a term limit was in place: five years.

Meanwhile, since 1989, the people of Hawaii have obliviously gone about their lives with the false knowledge that they were represtented proudly the humuhumunukunukuapuaa. I'm hope they're adjusting to the shock.
