River Griz

A catfish the size of a Grizzly Bear (at 646 lbs.) that might set a new freshwater world record? I can’t wait to fish the Mekong, and if I catch one of these it will not have to fear for its life. This fish …”persists on plant matter and ‘meditates’ [in the deep, stony pools of the Mekong River]?somewhat like a Buddhist monk.”, is endangered of going extinct, and it is reported to taste like any other wild catfish, in other words it tastes like mud.
Also in the article from National Geographic: dog-eating catfish- best catfish name ever (please, no Korean food jokes)! The walking catfish takes second and the electric catfish comes in at third.
