Description

The Piranha is one of the most iconic freshwater fish in the world, known for its sharp teeth, muscular jaws, and aggressive feeding behavior. Native to the rivers of South America, especially the Amazon Basin, piranhas belong to the Serrasalmidae family and play a key role in aquatic ecosystems as both predators and scavengers.

This preserved specimen is mounted on a decorative plaque, showcasing its signature anatomical features—scales, fins, and toothy jawline. It’s an excellent addition to any taxidermy collection, tropical fish display, or cabinet of curiosities. Piranhas have long fascinated scientists, naturalists, and collectors for their prehistoric appearance and powerful symbolism in folklore and pop culture.
