"I thought it had potentially been attacked by another fish," Turnbull told CBC News on Tuesday. It appears the fish had been caught in bottled drink packaging and, while the fish had grown, the plastic had not. Every time he moved his body, it moved a little bit and just caused him a little bit more pain," Turnbull said. Biology professor Greg Pyle says animals getting caught in plastic garbage is more common than most people think. Adam Turnbull was shocked when he realized a fish he caught had been struggling with a piece of plastic garbage for a while.
