WRITE TO ME AT BILLSCHANNEL@GMAIL.COM if you want to know the name of the creature at 5:33....... Most people think there is only one type of Piranha, but actually there are over twenty different types living in the rivers of South America. The most famous is the small red bellied Piranha - but the biggest and baddest Piranha in the Amazon is the lesser known Black Piranha. The Black Piranha, sometimes called Redeye Piranha live in very diverse habitats ranging from soft blackwater to hard whitewater areas of the Amazon. They are the biggest of Amazon Piranhas and have been caught weighing up to 9.5 pounds. Just recently, a group of scientists have determined that the black Piranha have the strongest bite relative to body weight than any other creature on the planet, past or present. +++++ STEVE TOWNSON'S WEB PAGE http://www.amazon-angler.com ++++++ WOLF FISH The Wolf Fish has a maximum diameter of 39 inches and can weigh up to about 90 pounds.
