Suddenly, it spots dinner: a shrimp swimming nearby. The fish glides closer and opens its mouth to reveal rows of razor-sharp, triangular teeth. Then it snaps up its prey in its powerful jaws and swallows the shrimp whole. Finished with its first course, the fish swims off in search of more food. Red-bellied piranhas live in lakes and rivers in South America. They sometimes use their mighty mouths to gobble up other fish or animals such as shrimp, worms, and mollusks. They swim and hunt in shoals, or schools, that can include more than a hundred individuals. According to legend, the animals, which can grow about 14 inches long, have even devoured human swimmers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CWG","offers":[{"title":"1 PACK","offer_id":49188785160375,"sku":"F424B8 - 1","price":4.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 PACK","offer_id":49188785193143,"sku":"F424B8 - 3","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 PACK","offer_id":49188785225911,"sku":"F424B8 - 6","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/2383\/1479\/files\/F424B8_2__94743.1628268544.1280.1280.jpg?v=1789522241"},{"product_id":"piranha-pira-a-museum-quality-rubber-fish-educational-realistic-hand-painted-figure-lifelike-figurine-replica-gift-2-1-2-cwg265-b242","title":"Piranha, Piraña, Museum Quality Rubber Fish, Educational, Realistic Hand Painted Figure, Lifelike Figurine, Replica, Gift,     2 1\/2\"         CWG265 B242","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eDiscover the captivating allure of the piranha, a species synonymous with the mystique of the Amazon River.

As their name suggests, red-bellied piranhas have a reddish tinge to the belly when fully grown, although juveniles are a silver color with darker spots. The species can reach up to 3.9 kg (8 lb 10 oz) in weight and 50 cm (20 in) in \u003ca class=\"mw-redirect\" title=\"Standard length\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Standard_length\"\u003estandard length\u003c\/a\u003e but rarely surpass 35 cm (14 in). The rest of the body is often grey with silver-flecked scales. Sometimes, blackish spots appear behind the gills and the anal fin is usually black at the base. The pectoral and pelvic fins may vary from red to orange. Females can be distinguished from males by the slightly deeper red color of their bellies.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eThe red-bellied piranha is typically found in white water rivers, such as the Amazon River Basin, and in some streams and lakes. Sometimes, they may inhabit flooded forests such as those found in the Brazilian Amazon. They live in shoals but do not group hunt, although they may occasionally enter into feeding frenzies. In the case of a feeding frenzy, schools of piranha will converge on one large prey individual and eat it within minutes. These attacks are usually extremely rare and are due to provocation or starvation. Breeding occurs over a two-month period during the rainy season, but that can vary by area. Females will lay around 5,000 eggs on newly submerged vegetation in nests that are built by the males.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eThe red-bellied piranha, also known as the red piranha (Pygocentrus nattereri), is a type of piranha native to South America, found in the Amazon, Paraguay, Paraná and Essequibo basins, as well as coastal rivers of northeastern Brazil. This fish is locally abundant in its freshwater habitat. They are omnivorous foragers and feed on insects, worms, crustaceans, and fish. They are not a migratory species but do travel to seek out conditions conducive to breeding and spawning during periods of increased rainfall. Red-bellied piranhas often travel in shoals as a predatory defense but rarely exhibit group hunting behavior. Acoustic communication is common and is sometimes exhibited along with aggressive behaviors. They are a popular aquarium fish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium; color: #0000ff;\"\u003eCollectible Wildlife Gifts is the market leader in providing high quality, realistic toys of all types!
