Overview

The animal behind the card

Nocturnal habits and a preference for murky waters keep it out of sight for most people. It feeds on fish, crustaceans and sometimes even small waterfowl that stray too close to the surface.

Anglers tell stories of encounters with giants that test both tackle and nerve. As a top predator in its domain, the Wels plays a key role in structuring freshwater communities.
