Catfish ngto species live in the river Tarn, South West France is the only species found there strange hunting action above. A new study to be published on 06/12 in the journal PLoS ONE study has introduced the public to a natural phenomenon notable fish jumping ashore to catch prey is the dove. These fish, from catfish they detected jumping out of the water to bite the birds are in a state not a bit wary on the banks of the canal before the water back down to swallow prey.
This is the first terrestrial prey is detected in catfish. Usually their food is just food, water sources like plants, fish eggs, other fish, snails, worms, etc. ... Also, previously only known human hunting on land of marine animals belonging to the mammalian species. ngto Therefore, this catfish researchers from the University of Toulouse ngto in France dubbed "killer whales fresh water."
Scientists ngto have spent 5 months ngto to observe the fish from a bridge over the River Tarn. During that time, they have been observed feeding more than 50 cases. Time of attack usually takes place very fast, only lasted from one to not more than 4 seconds in that 40% of TB cases this species is quite far out of the water to catch prey that they expose themselves half out .
The fact that the fish just attack the birds are moving so that we study the use of water to fluctuating prey rather than visual inspection. The scientists said that they had not yet identified the cause of ecology led to the adaptation of exotic fish.
