A teenager has been attacked and killed by piranhas in north eastern Bolivia.
Police have said the 18-year-old was drunk when he jumped out of a canoe in Rosario del Yata river, 400 miles north of the capital of La Paz in Bolivia.
A spokesman said the man bled to death after the attack.
The victim is believed to have been a fisherman who knew the Yata river well.
Despite the reputation piranhas have received from Hollywood movies, fatal attacks on humans are in fact quite rare.
