A couple of photies of a Barramundi chomped by a shark, probably a whaler. Would've been a monster Barra if it was still intact.

They can get up to around 1.5 metres in length and weigh in at close to 40 kg. They are found across most of Southern Asia, but the Top End of Australia is the stronghold. The N.T is where the big wild Barra are found, these days fish over the magical metre are quite common. Barra are, without a doubt the most sought after sportfish in Australia.
