Red-bellied Piranhas make sounds that can sound like a dog bark. They make these sounds when they are caught by fishermen

Piranhas have a reputation as some of the most dangerous freshwater hunters

They are terrifying predators capable of devouring a large mammal in mere minutes

The piranha's most recognisable feature is its triangular, razor-sharp teeth

They can grow up to 60 cm in length. Their teeth are usually around 4 mm tall

Despite their reputation, piranhas are more likely to scavenge than kill

They are opportunistic feeders. While some species hunt, most scavenge or consume plant material

Piranhas have an acute sense of smell, detecting a single drop of blood in 200 litres of water
