Fisherman Nets Suspected Piranha From Texas River
Brownwood AP reports a fisherman pulled a 12 inch fish from the Colorado River that officials tentatively identify as a piranha. The specimen was sent to Texas Parks and Wildlife laboratories in Waco for confirmation. Piranhas are tropical fish known for their sharp teeth and flesh tearing. Possession has been illegal in Texas since 1960 and the fish are sometimes released into streams by people seeking to dispose of them.
