Beluga

The beluga is a massive sturgeon that migrates between saltwater and freshwater, mostly found in the Caspian and Black Sea regions. Known for its prized eggs turned into luxury caviar, this ancient fish is now critically endangered due to heavy fishing.

• One of the heaviest bony fish in the world.
• Females produce eggs used for expensive beluga caviar.
• Wild populations have crashed due to overfishing.
