The video above was taken over the River Tarn in southwestern France and shows a number of large catfish stalking and ultimately killing pigeons on the river shoreline.
The footage has sent the scientific community into an excited tizzy with many claiming the catfish are now demonstrating ‘evidence of adaptive behaviour’ which is more common in dolphins and killer whales. With the fish, who aren’t mammals, crossing the water-land surface for food in new environments.
And if catfish weren’t scary enough.
