3300 lb stingray caught by local fisherman (local if you're in China)

  Imagine hooking into this puppy from your yak!

Pretty damn sad. It isn't like they were going to eat it.

In Asia are you kidding ? That thing was eaten , nothing going to waste !

Apparently, it turned out to be a pretty big score for the boat:

"The fisherman was able to sell the stingray for around $1,500 since they have a high commercial value.

Stingray’s liver can be made into fish oil, the bones and intestines are used in medical fish powder, and the meat is a delicacy in most restaurants."

  Won't be long now for those huge guys to start dissapearing now that one's been caught.  Not sure what the boat was fishing for originally, but now that he landed that guy I'm sure he's out looking for more!

Does anyone of Mario Galaxy for the wii?  There's a level that looks just like this...
