[font "Courier New"]A Fish Story
This was a pretty interesting story from The Sunday Wichita Eagle Newspaper
a couple of weeks ago. A resident in the area saw a ball bouncing around
kind of strange in a nearby pond and went to
investigate. It turned out to be a flathead catfish who had obviously tried
to swallow a child's basketball which became stuck in its mouth!!
The fish was totally exhausted from trying to dive, but unable to because
the ball would always bring him back up to the surface. The resident tried
numerous times to get the ball out, but was unsuccessful. He finally had
his wife cut the ball in order to deflate it and release the hungry catfish.
You probably wouldn't have believed this, if you hadn't seen the following
pictures... [/font]
