Thank you. That's a very fine story! Reminds me, purely for the fortean/South American river connection, of the dread, cringe-inducing candiru fish: It is feared by the natives because it is attracted to urine or blood, and if the bather is nude it will swim into an orifice (the anus or vagina, or even in the case of smaller specimens the penis—and deep into the urethra). It then erects its spine and begins to feed on the blood and body tissue just as it would from the gills of a fish. The candiru is then almost impossible to remove except through an operation. As the fish locates its host by following the water flow from the gills to its source, urinating while bathing increases the chance of a candiru honing in on a human urethra..

Overcormer Ministry must not believe QSL Cards have a place in end times, as they shorted me one even though I asked for one.
Different continent, but that grotesque fish reminds me of the deadly fugu blow fish which is a Japanese delicacy, but also one of the most poisonous creatures on the planet. Despite this danger and rather unappetizing look, I would love to try it. Certainly not found at sushi joints here in Omaha!
