I seen that on a documentary a couple months ago where someone had put them snake heads in the natural water to the area’ and they’re eating everything in sight’ and they have ways to get them out’ but it will take ys and lots of money.I feel for the fishes who believe they are safe ‘ to get killed by that monster looking snake head fish.
How they Got Here .
Experts agree that the various
species most likely came into
the U.S. via two different pathways.
Due to the presence of
specific species, experts believe
that some entered U.S. waters via
releases by aquarium owners and
some via the live food fish trade
by individuals releasing these
fish to establish a local food
source.
Currently, snakeheads are being
sold in live fish food markets
and some restaurants in Boston
and New York. Live specimens
have been confiscated by
authorities in Alabama,
California, Florida, Kentucky,
Texas and Washington; all states
where possession of these fish
are illegal. Also, snakeheads are
readily available for purchase
over the Internet.
