So, are we going to completely gloss over the dead fish in the foreground?
Because I would really like to talk about it.

This thing? …bc that’s definitely just a rock formation that resembles a fish.

That's what they want us to believe so they can keep all the tasty Mars salmon to themselves.

Sentient fish that died from shock after seeing the lander.

Which of the two images are you talking about?

The giant dead half-eaten fish in the first image, not the panoramic at the top of the article.

It’s not a half eaten fish. It’s a rock formation.

Well yeah, it was half-eaten at least 3.5 Billion years ago

I'm pretty sure a fish fossil that close to the surface wouldn't survive billions of years of erosion from the atmosphere.

Realistically using Earth as an example there wasn't even close to enough time where Mars was habitable for complex multicellular life to evolve, only microbes.

Just for reference the first single celled life evolved on Earth 3.7 billion years ago, but the first complex multicellular life first evolved 600 million years ago.
