An adult wels catfish of 2.0-2.5m (and more...) and 100+ kg has nothing to fear from any eagle. By the way, like any other fish, the wels catfish grows as long as it lives, so under the right circumstances it can even grow larger than 3 meters. Historical sources report wels catfish up to 5 m long, although this is highly disputed today.

Still humanity has this higher note about themselves so it's achievable to built instead of destroy, and protect instead of harm, all the while keeping ourselves at the top of our food chain.

On land, pigeons are hunted by cats, on water by catfishes. To complete the puzzle, we need to find the elusive catbirds🤭.

Given what I know of catfish, with chemoreceptors all over their skin, they're like one big mobile tongue, so developing a taste for pigeon would be quite literal.

*taking notes "River chicken trumps City chicken"

If they start hunting non water animals, it means no more enough foods for them in the water. They either cannibal or try those birds. Usually, cannibalism is common in catfish. That's why they reach such size. The smaller ones had been eaten.

In the next 40 years pigeons will grow larger talons and become aggressive 😂
