Piranhadon is a fictional species of carnivorous fish which first appeared in the extended version of the 2005 film, King Kong. The body of a Piranhadon is comparable to a mixture of that of a serpent and fish. They are dark green above the white below with heads which resemble that of piranhas, as well as a pair of green glassy eyes. A dorsal fin runs from Piranhadon's head to its back and has two pectoral fins and two long, sensitive barbels on their lower jaws. Despite the size of their eyes, they were very imprecise and could only see in terms of the contrast between extreme light and extreme dark. Their powerful tails moved side to side in order to propel the fish through the water, and their pectoral fins were used to steer them. As a rule, the larger the Piranhadon, the faster they could swim. They boasted double-hinged jaws that allowed them to swallow most prey whole. Their peg-like teeth were designed to pin prey in place rather than cut them.
