Whatta haul!

:
"During the recent draining and cleaning of Tokyo's Inokashira Pond, a giant carp called 'Moby Dick' has been captured. Moby has been frightening visitors for years slurping at car tires and small Shiba dogs. Finally the pond will be at peace." :rolleyes:
水抜き中の井の頭池「モビーディック」と呼ばれてた巨大鯉がついに捕獲された。車のタイヤや柴犬を丸呑みにする恐ろしい奴だった。これで池も平和になる。pic.twitter.com/CWz5KXbpWW
-- 高木壮太 (@TakagiSota)'s twitter January 26, 2014

According to RocketNews24, "the Parks Department began draining Inokashira Pond as part of an effort to remove harmful non-native fish, such as bluegill, that have been introduced to the body of water.. [and]...in just a single day, more than 50 twisted, rusted, abandoned bicycles were pulled from the pond ...[but]... the lake could still be concealing around 150 more bicycles."

That top photo has been doing the rounds on social media. It has to be 'shopped. Seriously.

I hope they get all the bikes out - and locates the original owners via the registration numbers. Who dumps a bike in a lake? That is just wrong. So many other options for disposing of things you don't want - most of them free. :evil:

Yeah, my thought too. To be fair, it could well have been one of the Japanese bike thieves that taught said Gaijin how to quickly and easily steal bikes that might have been the culprit, so there's no real need to make it a Foreign Crime!!!!!!! issue............................... :rolleyes:
