(Hopefully you're all thinking 'that's not a shark!' but I thought I'd switch it up and talk about another fish I'm a fan of. I might even try and mix in some other fish trivia too here and there...)

Piranhas, much like sharks, have a pretty bad reputation. Most people likely picture an unsuspecting animal setting foot in 'piranha-infested' waters (although much like 'shark-infested' waters, that makes no sense because that water is just...where they live) and being descended upon by a swarm of piranhas ripping them apart until there's nothing left but bone. But let's break that down.

For starters, most piranhas aren't even carnivores but, in fact, omnivores, mixing in fruit, seeds and other plant matter into their diet (even the well-known red-bellied piranha pictured above is an omnivore). Additionally, Tometes camunani is a fully herbivorous piranha and mostly eats fallen fruit from trees.

Even on the carnivorous side of their diet, piranhas tend to be scavengers, feeding on dead animals which can serve a vital role in preventing the spread of disease through populations and overall keeping the water clean.

Additionally, you're not likely to be swarmed by them either. While some species of piranha live in groups, this is primarily for protection and piranhas tend to hunt solo. The group feeding frenzies commonly associated with piranhas are rare, usually caused by starvation.

It's important to remember that piranhas are just regular fish which happen to have sharp teeth. Most piranhas are actually quite skittish animals and certainly won't attack something many times its size like you or me and risk injury or death if we fight back or decide to make a meal out of them instead (especially if there are much easier snacks like insects or fruit around).

So rest easy knowing that you don't have to worry about being torn apart by a swarm of bloodthirsty fish the second you step in their territory and take the time to learn more about them if you're interested :)

While most fish cannot regulate their body temperature (known as being ectothermic), basking sharks were recently discovered to be able to (known as being endothermic) which was previously thought to be exclusive to apex predators such as the basking shark's relatives: the mako and great white shark.

🚨EMERGENCY! PLEASE READ!🚨

Moataz @moatazart, Mariam, and baby Maria are set to make the dangerous journey from Gaza City in the north to Rafah in the south. From there, God willing, they will enter Egypt.

HOWEVER, the money they had allocated to procure shelter and food while in Egypt was utterly depleted by exploitative fees and hidden costs, which we break down in this post. Moataz speaks more on the situation in this post and on his own blog @moatazart, which we ask people to follow and boost. They have a fund going to raise the remaining money, but the fund only has a week and a half left before it closes! They are not even halfway to their goal!

Please share what you can with Moataz’s family so they can find safety and security in Egypt! They have no one in Egypt with whom they can stay and currently nowhere near enough money to secure shelter! After all they have survived, please don’t let this young family be left vulnerable! If they cannot procure food and shelter, they will be extremely vulnerable not only to the dangers of homelessness, but to groups and individuals who prey on refugees!

Safety for Gazan refugees does not end with leaving Gaza! If this campaign is not finished in LESS THAN 2 WEEKS, they will be homeless in Egypt! They are so close to a fresh start, please don’t let all the risks they are taking to find safety be for nothing!
