The SacryAfrican Tigerfish
(Reader Contribution to 10 Most Disturbing Animals on Earth)
The Tigerfish (Hydrocyus forskahlii) are found in many river systems and lakes in Africa. Their distinguishing feature are the sharp very prominent teeth which are set in hard, very bony jaws.
Top predators under the water, they are not dangerous to man although you would be forgiven for thinking it might be especially with quotes like this:
?I have stated heretofore in print and am still ready to maintain my pronouncement, that the tigerfish of Africa is the fiercest fish that swims. Let others hold forth as advocates for the mako shark, the barracudas, the piranah of the Amazon, or the blue fish of the Atlantic. To them I say 'Pish and Tush'.? L. J. McCormick, 1949.
