Released into the wild, the humble goldfish can grow to a monstrous size and destroy habitats for native species. Canadian researchers are tracking the fish, so that they might be culled.

      Depending on the great lake it came from, you’ll probably get heavy metal poisoning. Goldfish are edible and supposedly not bad- they are eaten in many countries including Japan.
