From WWSB TV in Sarasota, Florida:
Man "walks" catfish at the park

I once, when 13, walked my rabbit, but this is even more absurd. Nice find

Has anybody seen the vids associated with the recent issue of Amazona which shows smaller species of mudskippers being hand fed and crawling up the arm of the fishkeeper?
It has been some time since I saw something fishwise like this that made me want to get a new tank and fish I have never even though about keeping. While the man walking fish is cute, these mudskipper vids absolutely blew me away.
Since I got the link in an email, I am not sure I should post it, otherwise I would do so.

I've seen that video. The fish are very cute. If anyone is looking for the video, it is reposted on the Sacramento Aquarium Society Facebook page.
Cheers, Eric

Well, upon further investigation of the story, there is nothing funny to me about that case anymore but quite the opposite.
Having watched an original video dug up by an MFK peer, it looks like the guy is just clowning around while subjecting the fish to extreme torture. A wild caught gafftopsail catfish that are common in our area.
If this is not animal cruelty, then what is? Where is the animal police in Sarasota, FL?

Wow, you're right. This guy is just using the fish for a stunt.

Not using, abusing.

Right! Just another low life torturing animals for fun. And before this, someone in Florida was pulling a shark behind a ski boat. I think the Police got after them.

Oh my, this isn't funny after all. I hope the catfish is well.
