Toronto Zoo becomes home to 150 million year old fish - Catherine - 08-03-2026
Toronto Zoo has just become home to a Lake Sturgeon. The Lake Sturgeon have existed for 150 million years, since the time of the dinosaurs.
It is a very ancient fish which few of us have ever seen. They live in the Great lakes and their numbers have been in trouble. There is some improvement
and now we will actually get to see the fish in person.

Now I really need to visit the zoo. This fish is so ancient looking. They have armour like scutes and a shark like tail. This is a rare opportunity for people to see a creature that dates back to the time of the dinosaurs. They look ancient. Fish have changed a lot in the millions of years that have passed.
It will be like looking into the past. If you can't visit, at least look at the pictures.
