Danish anglers urged to catch 80,000 escaped trout [View all]
Up to 80,000 farmed rainbow trout have been accidentally released into the sea in Denmark, prompting a call for anglers to try to catch them.
The accident happened when a cargo ship crashed into a fish farm on the Horsens Fjord on the Jutland peninsula.
There are fears that the fish, weighing about 3kg (6lb 10oz) each, could upset the ecological balance by eating the eggs of other trout species.
A local environmentalist urged "anyone with fishing gear to... go fishing".
