The fish that's a real 'bastard'

It's a variety of sweetlips but nothing sweet seems comes from the mouths of anglers trying to land this fish from tropical north Australia.
Recently identified as a new species, the elusive blue bastard gets its name due to it being so hard to catch.

Patagonia Environmental + Social Initiatives 2015
In the conventional model of philanthropy, the big funders—corporations and foundations—mainly support big professional environmental groups. The large national organizations (those with budgets over $5 million) are doing important work but they make up just 2% of all environmental groups, yet receive more than 50% of all environmental grants and donations.
Meanwhile, funding the environmental movement at a grassroots level—where change happens from the bottom up and lasts—has never been more important. But these groups continue to be woefully underfunded.
The funding paradigm is out of balance. Patagonia aims to change it.
