This could possibly be the largest freshwater fish ever caught! A giant 13-foot-long 661-pounds stingray was caught in Southeast Asia, and this thing is a monster!

A fisherman accidently caught the female stingray from the Mekong River in the northern province of Stung Treng, Cambodia, Zeb Hogan, a fish biologist at the University of Nevada, Reno, told USA TODAY on Monday.

"Wonders of the Mekong research team tagged and released the giant stingray back into the Mekong River," Hogan said. "We will be able to track its movements over the next year."
