Besides its diversity, the Amazon River is also famous for its ferocity. There are so many predatory animals that are very dangerous there. There are also a number of dangerous animals in the Amazon river that are not actively attacking, but if disturbed it will be very dangerous.
1. Black Caiman
This animal has a size of up to 6 meters. The caiman is one of those horrible animals and lives on the Amazon river. If we compare it with the crocodile on the Nile, the size of the Caiman is much bigger, so Caiman often uses steroids. The Caiman has the title of the King of the River, because he can prey on anything that accidentally enters into the waters. Is it deer, humans, apes, piranhas, even anacondas.
2. Anaconda Green
The Amazon River is the world's largest snake habitat, the anaconda. The length of anaconda actually loses compared to python, but the size of Anaconda is much larger than the python, so the anaconda's body is heavier than the python. The weight of a female snake reaches 250 kg, heavier than a male snake. The length of the female snake reaches 9 meters, while its body diameter is 30 cm. Actually the anaconda snake has no poison, but if you look at the size of the body and the strength of the twist, of course this snake is very dangerous. With the power of this twist the prey will crush its bones and become weak due to lack of oxygen. If we just look at the physical form, we can conclude that this animal is very terrible and does not want to be friendly if we meet it.
3. Arapaima
This fish is often named Arapaima gigas. Another name is Paiche or Pirarucu. Although these fish are often used as ornamental fish (because they resemble arowana), but if they live in the wild, the size is much bigger and very dangerous. Fish that have habitat originating from the Amazon river or lake include giant ferocious carnivores. In the wild, adult fish can reach 2.7 meters long and weigh 90 kg. In addition to his large and strong teeth, on the tongue of this fish there are also sharp teeth. Physically, like this, Arapaima Gigas is a terrible predator on the Amazon River.
4. Big Otters
Big Otters are cute-faced animals that live in the Amazon river. A group of 2 meter beavers managed to kill and eat anaconda snakes. Even a group of animals can kill a Caiman with a size of 1.5 meters and can eat it until it runs out in 45 minutes. It's just that this animal habitat began to disintegrate because of human activity. If no human is bothering him, this beaver is the most terrible predator on the Amazon river.
5. Candiru fish
Talk about this one animal, maybe this is the smallest horrible monster on the Amazon river. If you look at the size, maybe people don't think that this fish is dangerous. Candiru is very interested in human urine. People who urinate on the Amazon river, will stimulate the arrival of this candiru fish. The small size of candiru causes this fish to enter the urethra and eventually suck the blood of the victim. Once there was a victim who was urinating on the Amazon river, the urinary tract was entered by candiru. The man who became the victim finally had to have an operation to remove the candiru fish that had sucked his blood. So, beware, don't just watch out for big monsters, but it can be a small monster that endangers us.
6. Bull Sharks
Actually sharks are predators that live in the sea. However, this does not apply to bull sharks. Bull sharks have the advantage of being able to live and adapt to fresh water. From the ocean, the bull shark can wander upstream of the Amazon river to reach 4000 km. This fish has a special kidney that can detect various types of water and can adapt quickly to a new atmosphere. The bull shark grows to 3.3 m in length, while its weight reaches 312 kg.
7. Electric Eel
Electric eel has a length of up to 2.5 meters and can produce a voltage of 600 volts. Woow ... very high voltage. Of course with this much voltage you don't try to approach it without the correct safety. Actually a voltage of this size will not kill humans directly, it's just that if you get an attack many times of course it feels very sick and can endanger the heart. From the results of observations, many people were lost because of this eel. After being hit by an electric eel, the person fainted and was carried away by the Amazon river. Although this eel is carnivorous, it won't eat humans. The main foods are fish, birds, amphibians and small mammals.
8. Red Stomach Piranha
Piranha is very famous in films because it is very fierce and deadly. With a large amount of piranha fish will prey on a much larger creature by consuming all the meat, so that only the bones left. Really this is a very terrible sight. Piranhas are very sensitive to potential injured victims. If a potential victim has been injured, the piranha will smell it. Immediately after that a bunch of these ferocious fish will attack him and eat it so that all he has left is his bones. That's why piranha is one of the most creepy animals in the Amazon river.
9. Fish Payara
From its shape, this Payara fish is clearly a very dangerous animal that lives in the Amazon river. These fish teeth resemble sharp vampire teeth, these fish are predators that become the enemy of the piranhas. This fish can grow up to 1.2 meters long and has 2 sharp teeth that reach 15 cm in length. These two teeth are used as the main weapon to injure their prey until they are killed. After that this fish will tear the flesh and eat it.
10. Runway Fish
Currently Pacu fish don't only live on the Amazon river, so you don't need to have trouble if you want to see it. These fish have now spread to Europe and Papua New Guinea. Seen from his teeth, actually this fish doesn't look terrible, because its teeth are like human teeth. These animals are omnivores and are very fond of nuts and fruits. For women, there is no need to worry about this fish, because it is not dangerous for women. But this fish is very dangerous for men. Often these fish consider male genitals to be fruits, so these fish will attack them and eat them. It was reported that in the Papua New Guinea area, men were found dead because their vital organs had been consumed by this pacemaker.
