A fish predator from in Papua New Guinea

Cork types of fish are hooked even drink blood and can have up to one meter long. Director Australian Research Centre for Freshwater Damien Burrows said that this fish could be a major threat to Australian native wildlife.

"There are a number of fish that are now on the southern coast of Papua New Guinea, directly adjacent to the Saibai Island and Torres Strait Islanders," said Burrows.

It is feared, fish species can be up to Australia and arrived in the area prey on local fish.

These fish can live in poor environmental conditions, aided by their ability to breathe air and can travel overland. This predatory fish like fish in general has a pectoral fin. Amazingly, these fish can climb a tree.
