    Description of Piranha
    Fish
    The Piranha Fish (also known as the
    ‘caribe’ in Venezuela) is a ferocious,
    schooling, fresh-water fish. It is native to
    warm rainforest lowland streams and
    lakes in South America – the Amazon
    basin, in the Orinoco River and east of the
    Andes Mountains. Piranha Fish have
    been introduced to other places, including
    Northern Brazil, Hawaii, parts of the
    Central and North America.

    There are many species of piranha fish.


    Piranhas are opportunistic carnivores (flesh-eaters).
    They eat aquatic and land animals that are in the water. Some
    of their prey includes fish, mollusks, crustaceans, insects,
    birds, lizards, amphibians, rodents and carrion (carcasses).
    Piranhas are diurnal (most active during the day).

    Piranhas generally eat smaller fish. Larger fish and small


    mammals may be attacked if there is a school of piranhas.

    Foraging methods vary in the different life stages of


    Piranhas. During the day, smaller fish typically search for food
    whilst at dawn, late afternoon and early evening the larger
    fish search for food.

    Piranha groups feed communally. Feeding frenzies will be


    triggered when there is a shortage of food or blood in the
    water.
    Bawal Difference With Piranha

    at first a lot of people are confused about the difference bawal with piranha fish. basically the physical
    characteristics of both fish almost have a charateristic which is almost similar. The following is piranha difference
    with pomfret fish:

     > piranha fish whose life is more fun in groups, at the time of piranha eat their prey, usually destroying and
    tearing apart prey together. whereas bawal hunts individually and not in groups

     piranha have one characteristic that rarely has other fish species that is its quiet as a statue but to react
    immediately when there is prey nearby.

     Dental piranha fish consist entirely of pointed teeth rather than large bawal teeth but not
    sharp canines

    The lower jaw of the piranha is larger
    and longer than the upper jaw. In
    contrast to bawal whose lower jaw size is
    small and the size is almost the same as the
    upper jaw.

    bawal is a type of carnivore but is
    omnivorous because it can also eat
    vegetation other than meat. While piranhas
    are carnivorous types only and are known to
    be ferocious predators.
