It's true! I don't know if someone got carried away with a certain Sci-Fi channel movie, but one was caught yesterday. From NBC5:
CHICAGO -- A fish known for a voracious appetite and ability to wreak havoc on freshwater ecosystems has been found in Chicago's Burnham Harbor.
An angler caught an 18-inch northern snakehead last weekend. He thought it looked so peculiar that he packed it in ice and posted a picture of it on the Internet.
State biologists confirmed Thursday that the fish was a northern snakehead. They immediately made plans to scour the harbor near Lake Michigan with electric cables to try and discover if others are there.
Scientists describe the northern snakehead as a "Frankenfish" for its ability to survive in oxygen-depleted water, move from pond to pond and eat other fish.
I didn't do it! I swear!!

You'd think if snakeheads were as tasty as tehy were made out to be they would be completely hunted out from the areas they've infested. I mean we are human beings we kick ass at wiping animals off the face of the earth...

Does anyone else listen to Kajagoogoo's "Too Shy" and think of "Save the Earth?"
