Aussie natives Stocking.

Why did it need saving?

It was stuck in a pond that was drying out, the deepest part was 1ft deep.
So I took him back to where about 20-30 of them are.

Hi Dudzy where is this pond if you dont mind me asking? I am involved in various ways with lungfish research and rescuing lungfish which are trapped as a result of recent overflows we thought we had relocated all lungfish that may be in danger from low water levels.

Whats the fish in the second picture? It's obviously not a lungfish.

 

[aussiemonsters]

yes it sucks Eric but the majority survive what is terrible trip they are very tough fish I guess they have to be to have survived for so long. We are very lucky to have such a unique species of fish in some SEQ waterways and impoundments.
