A fact from Atlantic bumper appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 22 May 2008.
Wikipedia


[edit] Cause-and-effect question

The article contains the sentence "They are not found in the eastern Pacific because their niche is filled by another species, Chloroscombrus orqueta, or the Pacific bumper.[2]" The "Did you know?" entry on the Main Page (May 21, 2008), "... that the Atlantic bumper is only found in the Atlantic Ocean because its ecological niche is filled by the only other member of its genus elsewhere?" echoes only this sentence from the article. This sentence clearly indicates a cause-and-effect relationship between the two facts (not found in the eastern Pacific; another species fills their niche). Does the reference state this cause-and-effect relationship? Fg2 (talk) 11:56, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes, it does.
