Just for the record re: posting about animals, and really anything else. I am not an expert and will never claim to be. I am exactly what it says in my bio, and I defer to real expertise in all things. I just love to talk about things that I love.

@Dannyboi407 @AKBrews At a guess, a Wels Catfish. A freshwater apex predator that used to be kept to normal catfish sizes by scarce food and cold water in central Europe. Planted by humans in Spain, Italy, the south of France and Brazil, they've taken advantage of warmth and food to become monsters.

@AKBrews What the hell is it @formikessake?

WOAH

@Dannyboi407 @JeremyBRoberts I really don't do urgently anymore. Like 100% sure it's a horn shark. But surety makes me nervous on this app. Always feel like I'm being set up.

@JeremyBRoberts We need you urgently @formikessake! What’s the right answer?

This shark is a: A. 📯🦈 B. 🐈🦈 C. 🦓🦈 D. 🐂👤🦈 E. 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🦈

@Dannyboi407 @thenewstribune Damn after that last paragraph I'm gonna crave seafood.

@thenewstribune Check it out @formikessake!

The previous record was set in 2004 in Florida. thenewstribune.com/news/nation-wo…

@Dannyboi407 @JeremyBRoberts @388shark Still trying to draw me back on to the twitters, still not following me on the platform that shall not be named. Doc. Come on buddy. (*sigh* yes it's legit, given it's basically an ID guide copy/paste. Not a criticism btw. Copying real data is better than what some do here.)

@JeremyBRoberts @388shark Does this sound legit @formikessake?

How to Recognize a Spiny dogfish 1. Slim, pointy snout & white spots, gray above/white below. 2. 2 dorsal fins with large spines; males 3.3' max., females 4'. 3. No anal fin, asymmetrical caudal fin lobes form heterocercal tail. 4. Acanthias refers to its 2 defensive spines

@Dannyboi407 You hush. My opinions are formed independently. The large sacks of cash have no effect on my thinking.

@formikessake Hmm… wondering how much ur clearing under the table from the fish ladder industry…

Whaddaya think @formikessake?

@Dannyboi407 Which server are you on at the other place, btw? I'm OldUncleMike at SFBA dot social

@Dannyboi407 Seems like a lot of energy and laborer hours to deal with a problem we knowingly create. Also, how do the spawn make it down to the sea again, exactly? Good old fashioned fish ladders go both ways.

@Dannyboi407 @ldragoon That's a lotta fish books.

@ldragoon Whaddaya think @formikessake?
