Best Answer

Piranhas do not just attack people for no reason. They may go into a feeding frenzy at the smell of blood and they will attack if they sense frenzied movement like that of a fledgling bird falling into the water. Really they, like many animals, can find much easier prey than humans so attacks on humans are rare although they do occasionally happen when water levels are low.
