The piranha is one of the most terrifying creatures in the water. They have been seen in movies causing devastating destruction whether it’s to property or people.

Since the fish have been portrayed as being a deadly creature, it’s hard to think that the animal has a legitimate excuse for being so aggressive.Most people don’t really understand just how harsh the animals can be until they see them in person or see a live video of them in the water. The piranha is an animal native to South America.

They are commonly seen in rivers as they hunt for their meals.

They are known as a flesh-eating fish, but they also eat plants.
The fish will usually get between five and 10 inches in size.

The teeth are triangular and very strong. Since the fish can bite very quickly and lock onto a target, the piranha is known as one of the most powerful among other animals.

If there isn’t a lot of food or the water levels are low, then it’s not uncommon for the fish to attack people. They are attracted to splashing in the water.

One man found out the hard way that it’s not wise to use a large piece of fish to feed a group of piranhas as they will quickly tear up the meat and try to attack everything else as well.
