I too loved it too.

It is nonsense, but it is also about sense, colliding two seemingly contradictory yet effortlessly integrated systems of meaning. Between 37% and 82% (depending on the reader's own emotional disposition) of the humour value comes from the poignancy of the fish-bear as universal standard-bearer of those who meekly accept the manipulation of their reality - even identity - by the strongly wrongly minded.

Alternatively it shows that bear costumes make fish very forgetful.
