This is an Interesting read about Sturgeon in Europe

Not to be confused with another Sturgeon, Jimmypoo in Georgia



TULCEA, Romania – Alas, poor Harald. Wired up to a satellite transmitter, he had much to teach science about the life of the great sturgeons of the Danube River and Black Sea.

His probable demise is a cautionary tale of the multiplying threats to the great sturgeons, sought since Roman times for the wealth they yield in meat and caviar.

Consider: A living creature from the age of the dinosaurs, a fish that can grow as long as a minibus, lives longer than most men, sniffs its way to its birthplace to spawn and can yield a fortune in caviar.

Or Sturgeon's Law, which applies a bit more broadly.

Here in Florida the sturgeon aren't so large, but they become pretty active this time of year. People have been seriously injured, and the outcome for the fish isn't always positive, either. There's so much traffic on the Suwannee in the summer--hope the chance to see one of these ancient fish will inspire boaters/jet skiers to slow down!
