Man Uses Piranha Like a Pair Of Scissors

The Cuyabeno Wildlife Reserve of Ecuador is full of lush tropics and an impressive variety of animals, but they seem to be a little short on office supplies. Not to worry! Plenty of the wildlife living in the rainforest are happy to lend a hand (or fin) in a pinch when everyday tools aren't around. For example, this helpful piranha has no problem being used as a pair of scissors. Watch what a good aquatic Samaritan the fish proves to be when this fellow needs some important sticks cut up ASAP. How considerate!

I wished it would bite his entire hand off! Apparently he has too much time on his hands.

I think they should leave the wildlife alone at a Wildlife Reserve.

Won't be so funny when it slips out of his hand and bites him!

While it is was an awesome thing to see. I hope that he let the poor thing go quickly. I feel horrible when fish are left out of water too long.
