This is a sweet story from The Sunday Wichita Eagle Newspaper
last summer.
A resident in the area saw a ball bouncing around kind of strange in a
nearby pond and went to investigate. It turned out to be a flathead
catfish who had obviously tried to swallow a child's basketball which became
stuck in its mouth!
The fish was totally exhausted from trying to dive, but unable to because
the ball would always bring him back up to the surface. The resident
tried numerous times to get the ball out, but was unsuccessful. He finally had
his wife cut the ball in order to deflate it and release the hungry
catfish. You wouldn't believe it if you didn't see the photos...
