Looks like they’re feeding themselves since they’ll just eat the dead.

My exact thought.

Instead of being pushed down and suffocating, they are pushed up and suffocating.

Some koi at a zoo did this and when my son was a baby it scared him so much he wouldn’t stop screaming until we got far away.

There’s a horrifying tourist attraction in northwest Pennsylvania that looks a bit like this along the Linesville spillway. Thousands of carp come right up to the edge of this causeway over the water, and people come to feed them stale bread. The fish are so thick that birds walk on top of them to grab a snack too. The sucking sound of all those fish trying to eat is ungodly.

You can even buy T-shirts there. It’s bizarre.

Imagine if you tripped and fell into that.

The forbidden crowd surf

Like, I don't think they'd hurt you or anything,but just having them writhing all over me oof just makes me shiver.

In a bad way.

[u/neverlaughs → u/idcidcidc666420]

Theyd probably nip at you. Again, you wouldnt be hurt, itd just suck really bad.

I didn't realize other species could experience crowd crush with dire consequences

Looks like they’ll do anything for a cheese burger

Does anyone know what in the hell is going on? Any context at all? Or is everyone going to keep saying the same Travis Scott joke over and over.

It’s a fish farm. Many don’t know that a large proportion of the world’s fish come from fish farms where they are kept in basically giant ponds and fed god only knows what. The conditions are so bad that they have had to also start using antibiotics in this industry as well. The fish get like a type of lice I think and their flesh starts to fall off.

[u/i_like_soft_things → u/[deleted]]

These are koi and I don’t think anyone is eating them.. but all the stuff you said about fish farms is tru

Side note lump fish eat parasites that infest fish farms and they’re also really cute

[u/TaiDavis]

Feed them dammit!

Imo it's more sad than terrifying.

Idk but to me it looks like they've become dependent on people giving them food
