Would have loved to have gotten my hands on a snakehead before that law took effect. They're gorgeous

It's funny thing that the Canada officers tried to get rid of the solo snakehead just to protect the koi carps.......

Koi are bad enough as they can take over an ecosystem and displace the natives, but there should be a death penalty for people who release piranha and pacus. Pacus have been found in lakes in Illinois for crying out loud! These fish are known for eating the testicles of swimmers!!! (not a joke btw.. all true)

There is a world outside your personal life. Unlikely? Oh yeh! But that doesnt mean I am going to want a toothy 50lb fish attacking anyone elses gentleman parts either.
