It feeds on other fish, but with surprising agility, it can also catch birds. If you want to see its impressive leap, go feed the specimens raised at Marasha, and watch your fingers. Its white flesh is tender and flavorful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the <strong>Bagre<\/strong> or <strong>catfish<\/strong> is very common.
