northern snakeheadWould-be fisherman have clamored to a remote Crofton, MD pond to try and catch a northern snakehead, a fish native to southern China that is known to devour other fish and then “shimmy on to other ponds on its belly and fins,” surviving “for days out of water if it stays wet.” A $1,000 bounty has lured an inordinate amount of people and at least as many reporters, but so far only two snakeheads have been caught.
