Goliath Tigerfish Eat Crocodiles
Tigerfish have hunting abilities that rival the tigers that you find on land (but don’t want to encounter in person). The most abundant species of tigerfish, the goliath tigerfish, get up to be 110 pounds and has giant, tiger-like teeth. Its Swahili name, Mbenga, literally translates as “dangerous fish,” at least partly because it can eat crocodiles!
Goliath tigerfish have been known to attack people. The Congo locals fear them because even the sight of it is viewed as an evil spirit. Fishers consider it to be the most magnificent freshwater fish in the world.
