Snakehead Fish

Do you remember back in August of 2008 when Snakehead Fish wreaked havoc in New York rivers and had to be eliminated by force before they eliminated other native fish? Well, major mainstream media are putting together the list of most significant events of 2008 and guess what – Snakehead Fish are famous, they’re on the list. Snakehead Fish deserve to dominate that damn list. 2008 should forever be remembered as the year of Snakehead Fish.

Aside from New York, Snakehead Fish also took over the rivers in Arkansas in 2008. That was back in April and Piney Creek in Lee County had to be rescued by the biologists who declared war on Snakehead Fish. The final score – obviously – is in favor of biologists, Snakehead Fish lost, but do not underestimate the power of this Asian native species. Snakehead Fish are already on the most bad ass list. That’s the way it starts and before you know it, Snakehead Fish will rule the world. Every smart man will join them cause there will be no beating them. Planet Earth will become a fish planet. The fish will breed humans for food. How awesome. Leave it up to Snakehead Fish – there will be no global warming no more and the ozone hole will patch itself. Sweet!

Snakehead Fish in Catlin Creek and Ridgebury Lake Poisoned

Snakehead Fish in Catlin Creek and Ridgebury Lake Poisoned

Snakehead Fish are aggressive predator fish native to Asia that somehow made their way to New York and started their merciless slaughter of native species in Catlin Creek and Ridgebury Lake. Officials had to take drastic measures and poisoned the water in both the creek and the lake with pesticides to eliminate unwanted Snakehead Fish.

New York biologists say Catlin Creek and Ridgebury Lake were invaded by Northern Snakehead Fish and action was needed before they could spread to other state’s bodies of water. Organic pesticide Rotenone was used to poison Snakehead Fish and so far the biologists found 220 of them dead throughout Orange County.

Poisoning of Catlin Creek and Ridgebury Lake in the town of Wawayanda also claimed lives of eight tons of other fish, but drastic measures were necessary to prevent bigger disaster. 1400 native fish were removed from the water prior to application of Rotenone. All of them will be returned to their natural habitat after the organic pesticide completely dissipated.

Snakehead Fish are an aggressive predator of native fishes and swift action was required in order to prevent their spread to the Wallkill and Hudson rivers. So far it looks like the action was fruitful.
