I think it has to do with traditional (religious? catholics) categorization of flesh into meat, poultry, and fish. they think "animals" means "meat"

A lot of languages also don't consider 'meat' to include 'fish meat', having entirely separate words for the two.

but yeah, I think in the US, its mostly catholicism brainworms

I'm confused, fish are animals?

when they think "animals", they think of the culinary category of meat. Not animal as in "animal, mineral, or vegetable". It's an overloaded word.
