Beneath the blue waters of Lake Tahoe, California, lurks a new kind of sea monster: gigantic goldfish! While looking for invasive fish species, researchers from the University of Nevada, Reno, discovered a goldfish that is nearly 1.5 feet long and weighs 4.2 lb.

Well, goldfish are carp. Idiots buy goldfish thinking they're good fish for small tanks or bowls not realizing how big they get so they chunk the fish in to the nearest body of water.

So, dunking kittens in a bucket of water would make me a monster, but yanking a fish out of it's breathing environment, hooked or not, and waving it around is morally acceptable. Hypocrites !

Canoe the Chicago river and you'll see lots of big goldfish too.
