A few Michigan anglers this summer reeled in fish that smiled back with human-like teeth.
The fish are called pacus, and they are not supposed to be on the end of anglers’ lines, according to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. State officials say the fish are becoming an annual part of summer thanks to residents disposing of them in local rivers, streams and lakes.
In July, Michigan anglers caught three pacus — two in Lake St. Clair and another near Port Huron.
that's pretty creepy....
"The pacu is not normally dangerous to people but it has quite a serious bite, there have been incidents in other countries, such as Papua New Guinea where some men have had their testicles bitten off," Mr Carl said.
