From environmentalgraffiti.comGiant SnakeHead
Cue irrational hysteria.
Raise overblown concerns for environmental and personal safety.
Begin report:
The giant snakehead is a carnivorous fish that feasts on pretty much anything in its path, and has caused all manner of destruction in places where it has been introduced. With the recent discovery of the fish in Britain, officials are scrambling to find a possible solution to this dreaded environmental issue.

Maybe you think it’s overstating the problem a bit. After all it’s just a fish, right? Wrong. This is not your everyday fish. For one thing, the giant snakehead can kill you. Female snakeheads have been known to attack and sometimes actually kill human beings who get too close to juvenile fish.

The giant snakehead will eat absolutely everything in a body of water then crawl over land to the next pond or lake. If there’s an infestation near any other bodies of water, those other areas are almost sure to be infested soon because the snakehead can survive four days out of water while it looks for a new home.

While they are considered a potential environmental disaster in this country, in South-east Asia they raise these as sport fish. They also say the species is quite tasty.

Scene from Romancing the Stone;
A snake crawls over a womans shoulder and is killed by the hero.

He: “Goddamn bushmaster.”
She: “Is it poisonous?”
He: “Yeah…. But very tasty.”
