Shark!!!!
There is a Shark which inhabits the Ganges and there is no reason one couldn't enter any tributary from time to time, a type of Bull Shark and it
has a taste for children...
Thats the Ganges Shark as it is known
here's a better pic
It is a coastal Shark that has no issues with swimming upstream into larger Rivers
It can also Breed In Fresh Water
This is it's range
Frighteningly and I did not know this until now
It seems it swims up the Mississippi once in awhile too
It can breed in water, swim in water and it is considered unlikely but not impossible that some...live entirely their lives in fresh water when the
circumstances work that way
It's a stretch, but I see no reason a Bull shark couldn't make it all the way up the Kali in search of food, there are some rocky parts on the
river, but I have seen videos of Bull sharks going through some incredibly shallow parts and tributaries of the Amazon...no more than a couple of feet
deep at best, in monsoon season it would be entirely possible I am sure
Just...stay out of the water
