Piranha 

Piranha is an aggressive fish and a meat eater. Because of its aggressiveness, it is known as a dangerous fish amid many people. It is even known as a great white shark. There are nearly 25 species of piranha. Piranhas are sharp toothed fish having deep bodies. You will find their bodies flattened on both of their sides.

There are a few fishes that have been seen in a size of 40 cm long too.Their mouth is open. Teeth of these species are visible. Red piranha is the most famous fish in piranha family that grows up to nearly 30 cm.

The deep sea fish called piranhas is found all over South America and are fresh water fish. Such fish prefer to live in shallow water however may be even found in the deeper water of the river. It has been observed that the attack of such fish is rare on human being but very dangerous. It has been even also observed that swimming in piranhas infected water is very risky at the time of especially drought season. It is because during drought season, there is food shortage for piranhas and hence they become violent and attack on human being.

Piranhas

Piranhas have the similar sensory capability, which sharks have. They may sense blood from distant place. Such fishes are risky if any person enters into piranha infected water having a scratch. Group of such fish may turn into a horse within some time if attacked. But such stories do not have any proof however they attack severely on the smell of blood. Piranhas are mainly found in Guianas, Amazonian river and Paraguayan river. These fish prefer living in groups but can be found in small groups too. We can take an example to prove how piranhas are dangerous sea animals and fish for human being. Once in a South American Jungle river, a man was fishing. He suddenly fell from his canoe hence he shouted for help. Another canoe came there for his help. Even if his hands were hanging on the canoe, he was dead. From that man’s waist down, piranha had left just a skeleton.
