Koi fish, originally bred from wild carp, are not considered wild animals in the traditional sense. They are domesticated varieties of the common carp, specifically bred for their color and patterns. While they can live in natural bodies of water, their domestication and breeding for specific traits distinguish them from truly wild fish species.
