A ravenous “Frankenfish” that can “walk” on land and survive outside of water for stretches was caught on Long Island – and now officials are warning the monster can wreak havoc. The Northern Snakehead fish was caught by a fisherman at Lily Pond in Suffolk County last week and now officials are crafting a plan of defense in case there are more of the sharp-toothed, tough-to-kill creatures still lurking locally, according to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. 5 The Northern Snakehead fish — which not only has legs that can walk on land but possesses the ability to breathe and survive out of water — was discovered living in Long Island’s waters.
