These aren't fish with leg (although such thing exist in the form of mudskipper), but amphibians (newt).Very odd fish with legs for sale.
With the Chinese you never know: pet or lifestock?

Occasionally I’ll answer an online survey but I was confused by a recent one about household pets. There was no option for “Thai boyfriend” as an answer.Originally Posted by christianpfc

The pet shops and their live supermarket sections are strikingly similar. They have tiny tiny rabbits that only live for a few months as if they're genetically bred to die young.
A few of the huge barges travelling up/down The Grand Canal. A very busy waterway.

Are those 'fish with legs' axolotls?
..........and that's the way it is.
Yes, I think that's what they are. Quite beautiful.
A gloriously warm and sunny day today. A stroll along one of our 'ancient' waterways. The buildings are probably post Mao but the street has steps going down the the water so it's likely older. A scene from a bygone era when goods were bought, sold and transported by boat. In full flow it must have been quite a sight. The stone bridge could be a century old. I don't know how the hanging tree doesn't fall into the water.

Another day of very warm sunshine. So much so that this chap has gone fishing, though for what I'm not sure. Not for him standing on Loch McFloogie or somesuch pitting his wits against the leaping salmon. No, he wades through the water in his full body wetsuit feeling for whatever with his feet.
And it's strawberry season here. Look how red they are and they taste better than any strawberry I've eaten in the UK. Some are the size of a duck egg so who knows what they're feeding them.
Probably best not to ask!
You might be right. They're all sold right outside the farms that grow them and they offer PYO if you choose to. Not cheap though. That plateful cost 45 rmb. But so good they don't even need cream and sugar although I will of course add them anyway.
