The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Saw that.  Seems like every summer, somebody catches one in a WA lake.  Good place to dump your unwanted aquarium fish suppose.

I saw this on the news tonight.  I had to laugh when he said they had a bunch of kids over this weekend for a birthday party and he didn't show them the picture of the fish until after they were done swimming.   :chuckle:

Don't want to swim in water with that fish.  Those are the ones that eat testicles.  :yike:

Jaws may not be the only one salivating as you splash.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, a cousin of the piranha reported to go after swimmer's testicles has been found in coastal waters between Sweden and Denmark. And fish experts are warning locals to stay aware -- in order to stay whole.

"Keep your swimwear on if you're bathing in the Sound these days -- maybe there are more out there!" Henrik Carl, a fish expert at the Natural History Museum of Denmark, told Swedish news site The Local.
