You may have heard of ‘snakes on a plane’ but have you heard about fish on a plane? In case you haven't, this video can show you. The clip shows thousands of fish being dropped from the sky in order to restock lakes in Utah, USA.
The video has been shared by Utah Division of Wildlife Resources on their Facebook page. It shows the restocking process and makes for an interesting watch.
“This week we stocked around 200 high-elevation lakes across the state. These lakes are not accessible by vehicle and other means of stocking,” reads the caption shared along with the video.
The post goes on to detail that aerial fish stocking in Utah has been used since the mid 1950s. “The fish are between 1-3 inches long, so they flutter down slowly to the water,” the caption explains. “Post-stocking netting surveys show that survival of aerial-stocked fish is incredibly high,” it says further.
