nick777 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 It weighs 35kg, local village elders reckon its around 500 years old. Caught in Southern China with its neck stuck with fishing net, and bought by a fishery officer for 200 yuan (NZ$40) who promised to release it on the chinese Mid-Autumn day at a local dam.. I wonder what he/she eats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
