This will certainly add a new edge to wakeboarding...
"Fall and be mauled"... hehe
sorry to make light of this, I am sure it could have some serious consequences, but as a scientist I hold next to no weight in news paper articles... they have managed to miss communicate soooo much of what i do, I tend to just laugh and imagine the poor reporter with no real concept of what the hell is going on and just hearing "has been known to attack humans" and "can survive out of water" and create a scare story from their own ignorance. I am sure there has been documented evidence of pike attacking humans... it all lacks context. Rant over. :P
then again, i know nothing about this fish or situation either...
Saying that, i am not going to tell my misses about them... i think it would freak her out.
