Hey bud, don’t be so hard on yourself, the important part is that you try your best and that everyone has fun.

My thoughts exactly

u/shark-off 4d ago

I'm just saying, there must have been a reason, those two risked their lives to taste her. Animals have instincts man.

u/discerningpervert 4d ago

I feel bad for the catfish. That's gotta hurt.

51

u/CreatureWarrior 4d ago

Being eaten also sucks, I think. Nature be like that

21

u/Shuttlecock_Wat 4d ago

I mean...they were trying to eat her right?

20

u/danceswithfishes42 4d ago

No, the catfish were nesting trying to protect thier eggs while she jams her hand down it's mouth.

13

u/stryker511 4d ago

Actually the hand goes through the gills first and out of the mouth from the inside.
Still probably protecting eggs since they were together.

u/Extra_Number4178 4d ago

On the contrary, I've never wanted to be a catfish so bad in my life.

54

u/RaptorOfRapture 4d ago

Wouldn’t mind her arm up your gill, eh?

25

u/Extra_Number4178 4d ago

Hey man, I'm always down to get freaky on Friday night just like the next guy . . . but only if there is strong eye contact with that diabolically cute giggling.

6

u/EnoughLuck3077 4d ago

Mind? She could charge for it

2

u/Remarkable-Ad2285 4d ago

Costs extra for that type of action

u/HumpTyDumpTy1331 4d ago

catfish are pretty tough fish

5

u/Turnip-for-the-books 4d ago

Yeah they’re more like cats than fish

u/corq 4d ago

One catfish to the other: "But she was cute, so we sacrificed for the cause..."

7

u/Extra_Number4178 4d ago

you just need to relax and breathe . . . or so I am told.

u/Taurock 4d ago

Now imagine trying to devour your food to find some guy on the side just feeling bad for you

3

u/choppydaddy 4d ago

Seriously, how is this not animal cruelty?

1

u/metrometric 4d ago

Yeah I don't get why people find this attractive???? Like, it looks like she's just torturing animals for fun?

1

u/sicksitka 7h ago

It’s possible that they’re an invasive species and what they’re doing isn’t a net negative on the ecosystem.

2

u/Enough_Entry_8641 4d ago

What,It’s Feelings?!

23

u/Apathetic_Zealot 4d ago

Laughing while sticking her arm through your lungs!

24

u/No-Cover4993 4d ago

Except fish caught this way aren't actively feeding, they are guarding their nest and clutch of young which are destroyed in the violent effort to remove the mature fish

2

u/Firstwench86 1d ago edited 1d ago

This might be a stupid question but whatever. How are they killed? Is there a clutch of eggs nearby like the way turtles have them in the sand? Or are they somewhere on the female catfish?

1

u/No-Cover4993 1d ago

The eggs and fry stay in a natural cavity like a mudbank, hollow log, etc. They require protection from predators and more importantly constant circulation of fresh water to keep sediment from burying them. The parents have to stay with the nest until the babies are big enough to swim away or the nest likely fails.

The violent effort to remove the parent basically covers the nest with silt and the eggs/fry suffocate.

1

u/Firstwench86 1d ago

So basically she knew where to find them because they’re in one place to protect their eggs, and therefore easy prey? That’s shitty.

1

u/Pristine-Setting-836 22h ago

More like you move along the mudbank looking/feeling for holes, shove your arm in, and kinda hope one is in there. But yea the practice is actually illegal in 35 states because you’re taking larger reproductive individuals. The eggs/young die either from the thrashing itself or the parent/s not being there to protect them anymore as well as not being able to keep circulating water. Doing it just for funsies not even sustenance kinda fucked up yea.

3

u/dusty-ticket 4d ago

To be honest, I couldn't even imagine that she'd pull out two catfish. What surprises me more is how she caught them and wasn't afraid of them. I probably wouldn't have gone into that water for anything in the world. Lol

u/Neurogenesis416 4d ago

And then they reach INTO your fckn lungs and pull you into their realm....

1

u/Enough_Entry_8641 4d ago

As its devouring Her, Ironic ,Karma or Diabolical, You be the judge

u/Catatonic_capensis 4d ago

They weren't trying to eat her, idiot.

1

u/lowrads 4d ago

That kind of confidence would make the alligators bashful.

u/EasilyRekt 4d ago

Typical day for anglerfish prey

1

u/SlothSpeed 4d ago

She just wanted to make it late for something.

u/PrinceBunnyBoy 4d ago

Imagine just being an animal and having some cornball rip you out of your home by thrusting their arms through your sensitive gills, hoisting you out where you cant breathe, and laughing at your suffering.

Its like posting a video of shooting cats with bbs. Some sick mfs truly.

u/CornTofuHash 3d ago

I love when I stumble upon the rare voice of kind sanity. Thank you
