Yikes! Amazon, Piranha, world record After I posted about the giant German rabbit, John Dunajcik sent in this picture of the World Record Size Piranha caught in the Amazon. Yikes! Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
One reason for not swimming in the Amazon.
Look here! Not a piranha after all.
The bathing season in Africa on the other hand are cancelled for my part…

The fish is not a piranha. It is a Giant Tigerfish (aka Goliath Tigerfish, African Tigerfish). Tigerfish and piranha belong to the same family (Characidae) but are entirely different species.
Whatever it is, that fish should be tested for steroids!
I don’t care what it is, I wouldn’t want to be swimming with it. 🙂
It’s Rybka!
hey folks this is an african tiger fish not a piranha. It is found in fresh water lakes in Africa. So now you know where not to swim!!
The internet may be a treasure trove of knowledge but it is also the biggest source of potential disinformation the world has ever seen.
