By now you’ve likely heard about the pacu fish showing up in Scandinavian waters and the threat this species poses to men. Nicknamed “the ball cutter” in Papua New Guinea, the pacu fish has frightening human-like teeth and has been known to bite men’s testicles. The following was reported on NPR yesterday:
Museum expert Henrik Carl explained the potential danger posed by the fish to Sweden’s The Local, saying the pacu’s ‘mouth is not so big, so of course it normally eats nuts, fruit, and small fish, but human testicles are just a natural target. It’s not normal to get your testicles bitten off, of course, but it can happen, especially now in Sweden.’
