This has happened at one of our Waterfowl Refuges, a cat-fisherman hung and landed three of them. Supposedly a kids parents found out that he had some unsuual lookin' fish in his aquarium, Dad found out it was a piranha and told the son ta' get rid of it ~ kid dumped it inta' a slough that runs through Refuge...

It happens. I've read about a pirahna in a local lake. How? A kid brought a pirahna as a pet. The parents freaked and made him get rid of it and the kid brought it to the lake and dumped it. Someone ended up catching it and it made the local newspapers.

Piranhas have been caught in the Ohio River near Cincinnati, as well as an Alligator was found in the Miami River near there as well.
It happens all over the country every so often, but is only reported locally.

If a person fell in and had some bleeding ,how would he/she get ashore while a thing like that was chomping down on ones face ,and being predators and strong one of them could be all over a person not allowing a swim to shore or to a water craft. Wouldn' t be a responsible thing to let one of them things loose in any public waterway.

Yeah, I read it this morning. Some wacko idiot apparently let it loose in public water.
