And you thought fish were fun, well this trout farmer did not think so!
I'm a fish ... get me trout of here!
CRAFTY brown trout have fled their fish farm – via this “escape tunnel”.
The intrepid fish leap 3ft from a breeding pond into a pipe bringing fresh water from a nearby stream.
Then they swim the length of the 8in diameter pipe AGAINST the flow to reach freedom 30ft away.
It is thought the farmed fish are following a natural urge to head up fast-flowing streams to spawn.
Photographer Dennis Bright, 59, captured the amazing sight at Alresford, Hants.
He said: “It’s remarkable. But swimming against the current is instinctive for a trout.”
