00:00Why is a piranha's bite so deadly?
00:03Well, look closely at one of these piranha's teeth.
00:08Do you notice that small nub on the left side?
00:12This nub fits neatly inside
00:17the tooth next to it.
00:20Every piranha tooth is linked to the tooth next to it.
00:26Compare this to
00:29the jaw on this monkey.
00:33On this jaw, each tooth is completely separate.
00:38Now because piranha teeth are linked together, their individual sharp edges are
00:46connected,
00:48forming one
00:50continuous blade
00:53that can slice through things
00:56like a knife.
00:58And that's why a piranha's bite is so deadly.
