WHAT HAPPENED
An eight‑year‑old boy named Seamus Coffey, fishing with his father near Philadelphia, pulled a large red‑belied piranha out of a Pennsylvania lake on a recent outing, a species normally found only in South American rivers.
According to Environment | The Guardian, the unexpected catch occurred while the children were targeting bass. Officials who examined the fish said its presence was almost certainly the result of a release by a private pet owner rather than a natural migration.
Red‑belied piranhas are known for their razor‑toothed jaws and are not native to the eastern United States, raising concerns about potential invasive species and the environmental impact of pet fish releases.
