They are very fast, and their powerful bite can cause up to 72 pounds of force. They have sharp teeth that are constantly growing, and they need to replace them constantly. They grow four sets of teeth in their lifetime. This means that they will need to replace their teeth every 100 days. As they can't survive without their teeth, they usually eat plant matter, but they will occasionally take a larger animal for a snack. In addition to eating plants, piranhas will also eat animals. Although they are mostly vegetarian, some species are considered to be omnivores. This means that they won't eat humans. Even though they may look dangerous, piranhas are very rare. A few of them live in aquariums and can be spotted in the wild. If you're looking for some facts about piranhas, take a look at the video below.
