美國現食人魚專咬男性命根 生性兇殘大綱
A pacu fish, known for eating human testicles, has been captured in Lake Lou Yaeger in Illinois, the Department of Natural Resources has stated. The fish is a relative of the piranha, which is known for its sharp teeth and vicious nature.
美國自然資源部近日表示，美國伊利諾伊州勞耶格爾湖發現帕庫食人魚，據稱這種食人魚專咬男性生殖器，與以鋒利的牙齒和兇殘的本性著稱的比拉食人魚同屬一類。"The red-bellied pacu is the cousin of a very well-known fish that terrorizes swimmers in made-for-TV movies and on the big screen: the piranha," notes the Discovery channel. "These family members sure know how to use their sharp teeth to make their prey scream for mercy."
《探索發現》頻道稱，“紅腹帕庫食人魚是比拉食人魚的近親，比拉食人魚非常有名，在電視電影中和大銀幕電影中讓游泳者感到恐怖。這些食人魚當然知道如何利用鋒利的牙齒讓獵物求饒。”Although the pacu normally stick to a fruit, nut, and insect diet, they have been known to eat other fish as well as human flesh. In 2001, two fishermen bled to death after being bitten in the genital region. The Illinois Department of Natural Resources has assured residents that it is safe to swim in Lake Lou Yaeger and that attacks by the pacu are extremely rare.
儘管帕庫食人魚一般吃水果、堅果和昆蟲，但他們也吃其它魚類，還咬人。在2001年，曾有兩位漁夫因被食人魚咬掉生殖器後流血死亡。伊利諾伊州自然資源部已向居民做出保證，在勞耶格爾湖游泳是安全的，被帕庫食人魚攻擊的風險非常低。
The pacu are native to the Amazon, and it is believed that any found in the lake are former pets illegally dumped into the water. Anyone found guilty of dumping the fish could face charges. Thankfully, no one was injured by the pacu in Lake Lou Yaeger.
帕庫食人魚原產於亞馬遜地區，據稱河中發現的食人魚都曾被養做寵物，後又被非法放生。將食人魚放生的人將面臨指控。幸運的是勞耶格爾湖還沒人被帕庫食人魚攻擊而受傷。Piranhas have long terrorized American audiences, with their ferocious appetites and need for meat. The fish were featured in a Bond film, "You Only Live Twice," as well as their own films "Piranha" and "Piranha II: The Spawning." In these films, the fish have an insatiable appetite for human flesh exclusively.
比拉食人魚一直讓美國觀衆感到恐怖，它們生性兇殘，愛吃肉食。“邦德”系列影片《雷霆谷》、食人魚影片《食人魚》和《食人魚2：繁殖》中都講述過食人魚的故事。在這些影片中，食人魚非常喜食人In 2010, "Piranha 3D" was released, allowing for a new generation of audiences to be horrified by the fish. It is more likely, though, that piranhas will eat smaller fish or their own if desperately hungry.
2010年，影片《食人魚3D》上映，讓新一代的觀衆們也飽受食人魚的驚嚇。但通常食人魚在極度飢餓時會捕食更小的魚類或者互相殘殺。The Department of Natural Resources has stated that if there are more pacu in the lake, they are not a threat to residents.
美國自然資源部稱，如果湖中出現更多的帕庫食人魚，它們對居民也不會造成威脅。
