Giant ‘Swamp King’ fish rescued from flood
With the help of a giant net for the giant fish, the locals hauled the stranded swimmer out of the water and onto the trailer of a motorbike. They raced more than two miles to release the fish back into its watery home, wetting the animal down along the way. (Some catfish can survive out of water for a few minutes.) From start to finish, the rescue took more than six hours.
