ANGLING.
A remarkable instance of the cannibalistic tendencies of rainbow trout was related by Mr. W. 11. Hazard (president of the Auckland Acclimatisation Society) at the meeting of the society. Mr. Hazard recently visited the game farm and fish hatchery at Tapapa, and chanced to capture a small trout, about iy,in long, which had the tail of another protruding from its mouth. The capture was such an interesting one that Mr. Hazard has had the cannibal fish and its victim preserved in spirits.
