Six critically endangered Mekong giant catfish — one of the largest and rarest freshwater fish in the world — were caught and released recently in Cambodia, reviving hopes for the survival of the species. On Tuesday, fishermen caught four more giant catfish including two longer than 2 meters (6.5 feet) that weighed 120 kilograms and 131 kilograms (264 pounds and 288 pounds), respectively.

    Well, it may not be a catfish joke, but it is a fish joke:

    One day God calls down to Noah and says, “Noah me old mate, I want you to make me a new Ark”.

    Noah replies, "No probs God, me old Supreme Being, anything you want after all you’re the boss…

    But God interrupts, “Ah, but there’s a catch. This time, I do not want just a couple of decks, I want 20 decks one on top of the other”.

    “20 DECKS!”, screams Noah. “Well, OK Big Man, whatever you say. Should I fill it up with all the animals just like last time?”

    “Yep, that’s right, well . . sort of right . . this time I want you to fill it up with fish”, God answers.

    “Fish?” queries Noah.

    “Yep, fish . . well, to make it more specific Noah, I want carp wall to wall, floor to ceiling Carp!”

    Noah looks to the skies. “OK God my old mucker, let me get this right, You want a New Ark?”

    “Check”.

    “With 20 decks, one on top of the other?”

    “Check”.

    “And you want it full of Carp?”.

    “Check.”

    “Why?” asks the perplexed Noah, who was slowly but surely getting to the end of his tether…

    “Dunno”, says God, “I just fancied a Multi-Storey Carp Ark.”
