Got Tartar Sauce?

Ok, here's a story that a school of piranha, the voracious South American predator fish, are being put on a diet. The fish have been overeating at the Birmingham's Sea Life Centre in England.

Regular mealtimes mean the razor-toothed predators have become a bit podgy in the last month so they are now only being fed half-portions in a bid to shift the excess, Lynsey Thompson, from Birmingham's Sea Life Centre said.

Piranha, which are normally found in the River Amazon in South America, are capable of stripping a whole dead pig to the bone within minutes and can literally eat themselves to death, she explained.

Now, it's a good thing they are trying to keep their pets in good shape, no doubt about that. However, please take a good look at this photo:

Let me ask you a simple question. Would YOU get into a fish tank with a school of piranha on half rations?
