the alligator gar....

Tuesday, September 16, 2008
ever heard of a freshwater fish 10 foot long and possessing more then a hundred teeth??....no?/...well then get ready to check out the alligator gar..its part alligator and part fish...they weigh between 100-300 pounds...these fishes are strictly carnivorous..although human are not their normal and natural prey... records have shown that this fish has actually ripped people's arm of cause they go looking for it in the amazon....its breeding wildly there....the species is about 400 years old...now thats a primitive fish....a closer look at its snout will also show that this fish has a pair or nostrils...not something very common u'd find on any other fish..just another prove that this fish survived evolution i guess.... but to my surprise...this fish is a normal catch for people who got fishing for them in the amazon...it has been considered a norm to catch this fish....but nvm...the alligator gar will still strike fear in any fisherman's soul who goes fishing in the amazon....
