a flatfish about to die because of some irresponsible fisherman!!!!!

GRRR...

some guy left his fishing line and HOOK lying around and this unlucky fish got STUCK in it.

it not only hurts the fish but kids who accidentally step on it too. X(

irresponsible, inconsiderate people. tsk tsk...

anyway after we tried so hard to get the hook out of its mouth (it really looked like the POOR fish was in terrible pain) we freed it from the line into the water but it died shortly after. sobs. poor fish.
