That’s Newton above, posing with the fish, in a photo that was probably taken mere seconds before the fish turned around and ate him. (UPDATE: The fish did not eat him. But I’m guessing it’s just biding its time.)
Frankenfish are native to China, Russia, North Korea and South Korea, but their populations are growing in North America, where they are considered an invasive species. They have no known natural predators.
Let me repeat that: they have no known natural predators. The only things that kill Frankenfish are humans and other Frankenfish. That’s also right. They’re cannibals. Franken-snake-cannibals. Sent from the depths. That can walk. That are in the Potomac.


This is a trailer for the 2004 documentary B-movie Frankenfish.
Well, we had a good run, Humanity. I’m going to go down to the banks of the Potomac and surrender now to our new Snake-Fish-Monster-Cannibal Warlords. Perhaps they will be lenient.
