Infamous for their sharp teeth and strong jaws, piranhas are fairly small omnivores found throughout the rivers of South America. Specifically, they can be found in the Amazon basin, the Orinoco, and throughout Guianas and Paraguay. Although piranhas have a reputation for being dangerous, they very rarely attack humans. We promise you have nothing to fear from this attractive hand painted and professionally designed model! 4.5 inches long and 2.5 inches tall, this figurine is a bit longer than a deck of cards stood on its side. Generally, piranhas are silver and brown with orange or yellow shading. Contrary to popular belief, piranhas are not actually ferocious predators. Instead, they are relatively timid fish that keep together in large schools as a means of protection from would-be predators. Piranhas will eat forms of vegetation at various stage of their lives, indicating that they are not voracious carnivores. In many ways, all that separates piranhas from other fish species is their unique set of teeth.
