Most members of the Piranha family, very likely eat human flesh. Plenty of anecdotal and real evidence on the internet.

In USA terms, there is also a very real possibility, that the Northern Snakehead fish will, and has been known, to attack humans, inflicting quite serious injury.

Most documented cases, have involved people trying to 'scoop-up' young Snakeheads for possible use in a home aquarium. Huge mistake!! The parent fish is known to be incredibly protective of it's 'family' and will attack at any opportunity it is given!

This fish also has frogs and rats on its 'menu' so a few 'dangled fingers' in the water will make a tempting snack!
