The well-known piranhas of the tropical waters of South America are predators, which can be clearly seen in the teeth of the specimen. Due to dam projects, particularly in Brazil, the fish multiply to such an extent that there are often hardly any other fish species left in such waters. Piranhas have also been transported to Southeast Asia and India, for example, through fish farming projects, where they cause major problems in fish farming.
