The Downtown Aquarium is home to a rare female largetooth sawfish – a critically endangered species.


• Researchers believe that sawfish have become locally extinct in at least 20 countries, including the United States, where the largetooth sawfish hasn’t been seen in the wild since 1961.


• Largetooth sawfish can grow up to 20 feet in length and are among the largest fish in the ocean.


• Sawfish are large rays with long, saw-like snouts, called rostrums, that are used to find and stun prey in murky coastal water.


• All 5 sawfish species are endangered or critically endangered.
