Salmonzilla was found dead at Battle Creek in California recently. It weighs 85 lbs and the speculation is that when it was alive and beginning its trek in from the ocean it would have weighed 90 lbs--a few pounds heavier than the largest chinook ever sport fished from California, but several pounds shy of the Alaskan record of 97 lbs. The record for the state of Washington is a paltry 70 lbs 8 oz.
Why is it that all of the huge animals we find are dead? Giant squid, bigfoot, this huge salmon... We think we're living within the natural world, but we're actually kind of on the outskirts, where carcasses and other detritus occasionally wash up.

Giant things are best dead.
At this point, Id probably still eat it.
Troy, good point. Jesse, 'nother good point. At $20 a pound that's $1700 worth of salmon.
