The latest research on the subject of whether fish can feel pain says they do not when they're given large injections of acid or bee venom.

Fish do not even suffer when they are hooked and fighting for their lives, according to research by an international team. 

They say fish do not have a brain system or enough sensory receptors in the nerve cells to experience suffering.
