It's nice to actually see some exotic wildlife in Britain for once! We only have boring animals here.

Congratulations on being 1st Mr. Anderson. If true than a pet owner must have gotten tired of his Piranha. It's good new that the Theme's is cleaner.

what? Its not a competition - I was just busting on iGav and his ability to find strange things on the web 🙄

Any way, what's to say these things aren't breeding? It is odd that one was found out of all the fish in the Thames.....😱

😛 😛 the King of Weird is dead... long live the King of Weird... heheheh 😛

It did well to last that long in the Thames to be honest... it's filthy, full of chemicals and full of dead people. (literally) 😱

You certainly wouldn't want to go swimming in it, if the chemicals didn't strip your skin first it looks like the Piranha's will get you.... 😱 😛 😛

With all the pollution and crap in the river what's to say it isn't a mutation...a cold climate piranha?

Didn't think of that, did you 😛
