Bottle-Feeding Fish Suck Up To A Chinese Woman (VIDEO)

Visitor to the the Guangzhou Zoo, in Guangzhou China, can feed koi carp by bottle.

You've heard of bottom-feeding fish, but what about bottle-feeding fish?

Amazingly, a school of koi carp at the Guangzhou Zoo in China have learned to be real suck-ups, and now let humans feed them by bottle.

The fish have been trained to do something that is very unusual, according to Stephen Fabian of RightThisMinute, a syndicated show devoted to viral videos.

"It's weird to see that fish totally sucking that nipple," he said. "It's one thing if a goat, for example, feeds from a bottle, because it was raised feeding from its mother. Fish don't do that."

Patrons at the zoo pay for the privilege of bottle-feeding the carp and get quite a show for their money, assuming these fish are as hungry all the time, Paw Nation noted.

I've heard of this before but never quite believed it. But seeing is believing, so now I can't decide whether it falls into the "aw, how cute" category or the "you've got to be kidding" category. However, it did make me smile!

What beautiful creatures. Not like the hump-backed, bug-eyed goldfish that the Japanese once found so attractive. But they are still carp and will eat pretty much anything that is offered. LOL.
