Monster Fish of the Amazon


Monster Fish of the Amazon
They're some of the biggest fresh-water fish in the world: larger than a human, heavier than many sharks, and strong enough to tow a boat. From 15-foot-long, air-breathing giants to 400-pound monster catfish, follow us as we explore the world's megafish and their population loss.
The Amazon
         Amazon is supplied over 20 percent oxygen and freshwater resources of the world, that mean Amazon was most important and valuable place at the Earth. Over 400 inches RAINS in a year in the Amazon, averaging over inch a day. It’s thought that reason the Amazon water level can raise by as much as 40 feet. THE AMAZON RIVER is about 4,000 miles long and is home to over 3,000 species of great fish in the world.



     
    FISH OF THE AMAZON
                Variety of species fish at Amazon but most WANTED is PIRARUCU primarily of white muscles, able to speed jump over nets and boats. The pirarucu muscle tissue can be fatal due to build up of lethal lactic acids, making extended periods on shore and trying to escape fisherman deadly to the fish.
                The fish are totally 5 feet long, JAU and PIRAIBA that are believed to spawn later than most fish just 6 or 7 years old.
                Many believed that PIRAIBA have been to EAT many animals including MONKEYS or BIRDS.
                The problem still same after over the past century the species dramatically drop and it’s can be the world most endangered the MONSTER FISH.

                  The dog-eating catfish, it’s also call the Chao Phraya catfish eat dogs, it’s a LEGEND. That was a one reason many Buddhist Thai people love and care for fish, their religion encourage them must earn merit by protecting all living thing.
                    In the world, the Mekong river have giant catfish is believed to be the largest freshwater fish have be see and ever caught with over 700 pounds also believed can reach over than that. The government of Thai now is doing part to protect fish at Mekong by releasing over one million native species into the wild per year.
                    The Mekong is home to more species of MONSTER FISH than anywhere else on Earth, but now it’s bitter to call that because Mekong giant catfish numbers have DROPPED 95 PERCENT over the past century making it the world most endangered freshwater fish.
