Arapaima - The Largest Freshwater Fish In The World

The Arapaima is a tropical fish of the Amazon basin. It is one of the largest freshwater fish in the world. Arapaima reach sizes of up to 15 feet in length. The scales are olive-green, turning increasingly reddish towards the tail region.

The swim bladder is open to the pharynx and the arapaima uses the bladder which is rich in blood vessels as a lung. Arapaima feed mainly on fish.

Anatomy and morphology

Arapaima can reach lengths of more than 2 m (6.6 ft), in some exceptional cases even more than 2.5 m (8.2 ft) and over 100 kg (220 lbs). The often cited maximum length of 4.5 m (14.8 ft)[2][3] comes from a single second-hand-report from the first half of the nineteenth century, and is not confirmed.[citation needed] The maximum-cited weight for the species is 200 kg (440 lbs). As one of the most sought after food fish species in South America, it is often captured primarily by handheld nets for export, by spearfishing for local consumption, and, consequently, large arapaima of more than 2 m are seldom found in the wild today.

Ecology

The diet of the arapaima consists of fish, crustaceans, and other small animals. The fish is an air-breather, using its swim bladder, which is rich in blood vessels and opens into the fish's mouth,[4] an advantage in oxygen-deprived water that is often found in the Amazon River. This fish is therefore able to survive in shallow waters with dissolved oxygen as low as 0.5 ppm.

Reproduction


Due to the geographic range that arapaima inhabit, the animal's life cycle is greatly affected by the seasonal flooding that occurs. The arapaima lays its eggs during the months of February, March, and April when the water levels are low or beginning to rise. They build a nest approximately 50 cm wide and 15 cm deep, usually in muddy bottomed areas. As the water rises the eggs hatch and the offspring have the flood season to prosper, during the months of May to August. Therefore, the yearly spawning is regulated seasonally. The arapaima male is supposed to be a mouthbrooder, like its relative the Osteoglossum spp., meaning the young are protected in its mouth until they are older. The female arapaima helps to protect the male and the young by circling them and fending off potential predators.

In his book The Whispering Land, naturalist Gerald Durrell reports hearing the tale in Argentina that female arapaima have been seen secreting a white substance from a gland in the head and that their young have been noted seemingly feeding on the substance

Importance to humans

Arapaima on stampThe arapaima is hunted and utilized in many ways by local human populations. Arapaima are harpooned or caught in large nets and the meat is said to be delicious. Since the arapaima needs to swim up to breathe air, traditional arapaima fishers often catch them by first harpooning them and then clubbing them dead. One individual can yield as much as 70 kg of meat.

The arapaima has also been introduced for fishing in Thailand and Malaysia. Fishing for this species in Thailand can be done in several lakes, where it is not uncommon to see arapaima over 150 kg landed and then released.

Special care is needed when dealing with these fish as although they are large they are also hard to deal with, with catch and release after the fish is landed it must be held in a shallow pen/bed for about 3 hours, as this species goes into shock so a careful watch must be kept to make sure that it is coming up for air about every 15 min, if not then the fish can be gently lifted so that its head comes out of the water, when this happens they have a reflex action to breathe. Arapaimas are also known to leap out of the water if they feel constrained by their environment or harassed.

It is also considered an aquarium fish, although it obviously requires a large tank and ample resources. This animal also appears in the pet trade, although to keep an arapaima correctly requires a large tank and can prove quite difficult.

The tongue of this fish is thought to have medicinal qualities in South America. It is dried and combined with guarana bark, which is grated and mixed into water. Doses of this are given to kill intestinal worms. In addition, the arapaima's bony tongue is often used to scrape cylinders of dried guarana, an ingredient in some beverages, and the bony scales are used as nail files.

In July 2009, some villagers who live around Kenyir Lake in Terangganu, Malaysia reported sighting the arapaima gigas. The "Kenyir Monster" or "dragon fish" as the locals call it, is claimed to be responsible for the mysterious drowning of two men on June 17


In popular culture

  • In the PC game The Amazon Trail II the Arapaima (called Pirarucu in the game) sometimes appears while spearfishing it is one of the largest fish in the game, and only appears once in any one fishing session.
  • The Arapaima can also be found in the Nokia NGage title Hooked On: Creatures of the Deep at the games Thailand resort Top Cats
  • In the Street Fighter II games, a large Arapaima is seen hanging in the background of Blanka's stage in Brazil, along with an anaconda and the Amazon River.
  • In the Petz games on Wii & PS2 Catz & Dogz 2, the Arapaima is found in Gongoro Peak.There is also a Golden Arapaima, which is one of the rarest catches.
  • Sri Lanka's Zoological Gardens Located in Dehiwala also has several specimens listed as 'The World's largest freshwater fish'.

A group of chimpanzees mourn his death witnessed

More than a dozen chimps stand behind razor wire and watched silently Dorothy, a chimpanzee who was 40 years more, dying of heart failure. This is a very touching picture and maybe you never seen before.

A group of chimpanzees mourn his death witnessed

The chimpanzee came from a chimpanzee rescue center in Cameroon Sanaga Yong. The locals work place as a volunteer nurse or "care givers" for the chimps who have been orphaned due to poaching.

Extraordinary photographs were taken on September 23, 2008 by Monica Szczupider who worked in the rescue center. According to Monica, Dorothy was at the rescue center for 8 years and he was a key figure among the 25 other chimps.


"Chimpanzees are naturally it was not animals that like to settle. They are like friends, like noisy and loud noise and is usually very difficult to get them to notice something in a long time." Said Monica

"But that day, they could not take my eyes off her eyes from the Dorothy and the silence is really incredible."

Previously, scientists reject the theory that animals can feel emotion and mention of the theory as "anthropomorphic" excessive. Anthropomorphic means wearing or attributes of human nature to beings other than humans.

However, some evidence suggests that animals may also be felt emotion.

Example chimpanzees at Sanaga Yong rescue center is often seen are lamenting the death of a family or group members by way of silence after the death occurred.

Even according to Dr. Marc Bekoff, an ethologist from the University of Colorado, birds Magpies also showed the same thing. When there is a death in the group, they looked grieved and held a funeral service by putting a pinch of grass next to a dead friend.

While the chimpanzees at Sanaga silence from behind the barbed wire, Dorothy gently wrapped in a bed that took him to his last resort.

Goodbye Dorothy ...

The animals of the past!

Here's a few list of prehistoric animals which I think is amazing and fascinating:

1. DIPROTODON
DIPROTODON

Before humans first set foot on the continent of Australia about 40,000 years ago, a wide range of large marsupial animals once lived there. One of the biggest is Diprotodon. Marsupial animal that one expected the size of an adult Hippopotamus. Seen from the morphology, it looks a bit like a Wombat - Australian marsupial animal species - but huge. Just like most animals other marsupial, Diprotodon also consume leaves as main meal. Although they are not animals with a quick movement like kangaroos, but a large body size and strength make the predator is very hard to defeated him.

2. MOROPUS
MOROPUS

When scientists found fossils Moropus for the first time, they seemed hard to believe the form morphology of this one creature. Ancient animals with a head resembling the head of this horse really has a strange shape. The scientists describe as a "mixture" of the three animals, namely horses, Giraffes stunted, and Bear. Horse-like head and body that resembles a bear's body is connected by a fairly long neck like a giraffe's neck dwarf. With nails long sharp, and the ability to run well of course he has a good defense to avoid the predators. Moropus live in the south and west Asia about 12,000 years ago.

3. Ambulocetus
Ambulocetus

This is one of the ancient creature that claimed many adherents of Neo-Darwinism as a strong evidence of a transition period of species of sea creatures to land. Ambulocetus, ancient animals with a physique like a mixture of ancestral whales and otters live in the area now known as modern Pakistan about 50 million years ago. A body length of adult Ambulotecetus estimated 12 feet. Form a large head with a long jaw. Sharp teeth designed for capturing and gripping prey. In the water, he can move swiftly with the help of his tail is used as the "motor" for the body.

4. Lystrosaurus
Lystrosaurus

Before the emergence of dinosaurs, living creatures on Earth ever rang by some strange animal that resembled a reptile. One is Lystrosaurus. Ancient animals of particular interest because of the odd shape of her body is living in marshy habitats, but he also does not matter if you have had to inhabit places that are categorized as dry. Lystrosaurus estimated to inhabit the earth about 230 million years ago.


5. Phorusrhacos
Phorusrhacos

Around 20 million years ago, South America is a land that has so many variations of species of birds and mammals. One of them is a well-known species of carnivorous bird named Phorusrhacos. He is a species of bird can not fly. Height can reach 10 feet (3 meters). Although not able to fly, they are fast runners. This makes it easily Phorusrhacos to catch its prey. Phorusrhacos species estimated to exist up to 3 million years ago. Scientists estimate Phorusrhacos extinction caused by the emergence of several other predators who migrated from North to South Amrika after they are connected by a central American mainland came to the mainland.

6. Mammoth
Mammoth

I'm sure my friends familiar with the legendary animal of this one. Mammoth is one of the ancient animals so popular. Physically resembles the elephant but has a thick fur disekujur body. Great stature as well as additional "weapon" of ivory that was so long makes it so difficult to conquer any predators. The paintings are on scratched on cave walls by early humans lot of animals to illustrate how difficult it is to be conquered by them. Mammoth is about animals that inhabit the coast of Wrangel Island north of Siberia. Many scientists believe, the last generation Mammoth still be found around 4000 years ago during the construction of Khufu pyramid in Giza, Egypt has been completed.

7. Tooth tiger Swords
Tooth tiger Swords

This is an ancient animal that for me the most fascinating, Tiger Tooth Sword. They are one of the ice age animals are so famous. One terganas nan deadly predator that ever set foot on this earth. Tooth Sword tiger inhabit the western United States at the end of the ice age, but they also spread several other North American regions as well as some live in the South American region.

Known, there are two genus of these animals, the genus Smilodon and Homotherium Genus. In general type of long fangs Genus Smilidon could reach more than 18 centimeters, while for long Homotherium genus of about 10 centimeters fangs. These animals hunt horses, buffalo, antelope as food
