Residents in a Pinellas park community were greeted by 30 walking catfish Wednesday. These fish live in storm drains and when it rains a lot, they come up with the water and start walking the streets.
Scientists say they are easy to catch but not to save them because the fish are invasive species that do harm to Florida's ecosystem.
