Fisherman caught a 646-pound giant catfish that was bigger than a grizzly bear and ate it said World Wildlife Federation officials. The giant catfish is believed to one of the biggest freshwater fish ever found. It was caught in the Mekong River, home to more massive species of fish than any other river in the world. Dr Zeb Hogan of the WWF has confirmed the record and also said it was it was amazing to find one that large.
Local environmentalists and government officials tried to negotiate the release of the fish so that it could continue its spawning migration in the far north of Asia. The adult male died and was eaten in a remote village in the north.
