How have I never heard of this before?
Click here for a video of a catfish that walks…kind of.
I did a little research on the beasts (Read: I Googled them). Check out the world distribution. How did they get to Florida?
Here’s the Wikipedia entry.

I know they are quite different, but the same by the fact that they are both ecologically dangerous, invasive species that have been introduced to Virginia waters.

Actually, this walking catfish is quite different than the Northern Snakehead.
Here’s the wikipedia entry for the Northern Snakehead: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_snakehead

Tee-Hee, snicker. Sportsmen have known about them and snake-head fish for several years - where have you been?
