A weird and exotic fish by the name of Pacu has been found in a lake in Illinois, known for chewing off men’s genitals and killing them.  At first when found it was thought to be a piranha, then discovered to be this “ballcutter.” People, especially men were warned to stay out of the lake! Hit the jump.

A popular Illinois lake is on guard after the discovery in its waters of the exotic pacu fish – infamous for killing men by ripping off their testicles.

Families reported being wary of entering the waters of Lake Lou Yaeger after hearing that a pacu was caught by a fisherman on June 7 and that another one had been spotted two weeks later.

Known in Papua New Guinea as ‘The Ball Cutter’, the pacu has reportedly been responsible for the deaths of two fishermen in the Pacific nation, who died from blood loss after the fish had bitten off their testicles.
