Small fish takes big bite

Blimey, this is what you call a guts-ache! :blink:

While fishing in about 1,400 feet of water off the South Coast of Grand Cayman, Mr. Wright?s attention was drawn to an object that was floating on the surface nearby. He motored over to investigate and picked up a dead fish that simply amazed him. It is now also astonishing scientists both here and in the United States.

 

In the belly of the fish was another fish, and this one was clearly much, much bigger. In fact when it was measured it was determined that the fish he picked up had eaten a ?snake mackerel? that was more than four times its own length.

 

?When I first saw it I really couldn?t believe my eyes,? said Wright. ?It had obviously just died, so I decided I had to put it in the boat and take it down to the Department of the Environment to investigate it further.?
