Awesome! Fish that eats crocodiles - Mark - 21-10-2010


Awesome! Fish that eats crocodiles ... and people.

Real life monster! This gigantic fish was caught by Jeremy Wade who risked death to capture this creature for a TV show.

It's teeth are the same size as a great white sharks, this little fellow also packs an extremely powerful bite. The goliath tigerfish has only ever been caught a handful of times.

Jeremy who is 52 travelled to Africa's Congo River to hunt for this beast, he spent 8 days tracking down this 5 foot whopper. Apparently, this fish has been known to eat prey the same size as itself, as well as taking bites out of crocodiles and attacking humans.

To catch it, he used cat fish as bait and a 200lb line to reel it in.

It has been described as a Giant Piranha.


Here's the happy fellow below.
