Negative - trout with catfish lodged in throat Metadata
| Title: | Negative - trout with catfish lodged in throat |
| Collections: | Faculty of Agriculture fonds |
| Description: | A negative, taken by John Wallis, of the fish he and a friend discovered in Clearwater Bay, Lake of the Woods, in June 1946. A large trout was found with a ten-inch catfish lodged in its throat; Wallis surmises that, as the trout tried to swallow the catfish, the catfish's spines were driven into the sides of the trout's throat, causing the catfish to be stuck. This photograph, according to Wallis, "shows the lake trout with the tail end of its catfish killer in its mouth." A three-page story, from which the above quote was taken, accompanies the photographs. |
