Danger in Huadu Furong

In a recent email I recieved, I found these pictures with an article saying that every year a few people were drowning or mysteriously disappearing in Huadu's Furong Reservoir. When the son of a government official recently went swimming and suddently drowned they discovered this 9.8 ft long, man-eating catfish whose head alone is 1 meter (3.3 ft) wide!

Swimming in the reservoir is now forbidden because they found remains of another man inside, and it is feared another similar man-eating catfish is still lurking in the waters. Can you say "Creepy!"

This is exactly why I don't go swimming in lakes, or reservoirs. Ewwwww. Except in order to do a triathlon, you have to swim in a lake or reservoir. Ahhhh, I think I'm going to have a panic attack.

What about all those creepy worms you have in Utah lakes and streams?
