Channel catfish
The channel catfish is a freshwater fish native to North America, and it is the continent's most common catfish. It lives in rivers, lakes, ponds and reservoirs, and it is a popular fish for anglers to catch and eat. It has spines on some of its fins that can cause a small injury if it is handled badly.1

Dintlha
Taste buds cover the whole body, and they are most dense on the four pairs of barbels around the mouth.1
They can sense certain amino acids in water at about one part per 100 million, which helps them find food in murky water.1
The largest channel catfish on record weighed 26 kg and was caught in South Carolina in 1964.1
Channel catfish are the most fished catfish in the United States, with around 8 million anglers catching them each year.1
Fossils of this species have been found in central North America from the Miocene onwards, and the species has lasted for nearly 20 million years.1
Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Tennessee have made the channel catfish their official state fish.1
Ho senya ditshomo
Tshomo: Channel catfish barbels can sting when touched.
Nnete: The barbels cannot sting. The spines on the pectoral and dorsal fins are the only part that can cause injury.1
