This is the amusing moment hundreds of fish were seen feeding in a muddy river.

Footage captured by Zulmajdi Flabar shows a school of snakehead swimming in the murky water in Selangor, Malaysia.

The freshwater fish can be seen with their heads at the surface of the water, opening their mouths as they munch on plankton and aquatic insects on July 18.

The snakehead fish is a common freshwater species widely found across Malaysia's rivers, lakes, and ponds. Known for its hardiness, the snakehead thrives in murky and slow-moving waters, making it well adapted to environments like the muddy river seen in the footage.

Locals often value snakehead fish not only as a food source but also for its reputed health benefits in traditional medicine.
