The Snakeheads are back!
The real life creature that spawned the SciFi movie "Snakehead Terror" has returned to a Maryland lake.
WHEATON -- A lake that feeds the Anacostia River will be drained Thursday because of the capture of a snakehead, a voracious nonnative fish could threaten the Maryland ecosystem.
State officials, however, said no other snakeheads had been found since the first was caught by a fisherman Monday at Pine Lake in Wheaton Regional Park.
The Anacostia tributary into which the lake feeds will also be checked for snakeheads, said Steve Early, assistant director of fisheries for the Maryland Department of Natural Resources.
