To the uninitiated, the common red belly Pacu

might pass as a red breasted Piranha.

Piranha are illegal in Texas since local waters are warm enough that they
might survive if released. There was a recent scare a few years ago when a
local fisherman caught a pacu and reported it a s a piranha.

I don't see what all the fuss was about. The lake where he caught it is chock
full of 'gators, how much worse could a few piranha be?
