FISHERMAN Aleks Korobov
Aleks has contacted the Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography for their expert opinion.
Expert Gennady Dvorykankin from the Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography said: "We had to do an autopsy and carry out a series of examinations to determine the species and an explanation for the teeth.
"We are convinced it is a member of the Piranha family, and that it is a herbivore piranha, not one of the meat eating ones you see in films.
"It is very unlikely that it made its way from its natural tropical waters to our Arctic and then into the river so we can only assume it was dumped by an owner of exotic fish," he added.
