Información del producto

🐟 Northern Snakehead – (Channa argus) – Invasive Predator (ILLEGAL in USA)

The Northern Snakehead (Channa argus) is a highly aggressive, predatory fish native to parts of China, Russia, and Korea. Recognizable by its elongated body, large mouth full of sharp teeth, and snake-like patterning, this species is capable of breathing air and surviving out of water for extended periods.

While impressive in size and predatory behavior, the Northern Snakehead is a destructive invasive species in many parts of the world. In the United States, it is illegal to own, transport, or release this fish due to its ability to devastate local ecosystems by outcompeting native fish and preying on them.
