Do you know how big a sturgeon is? by: Joseph

 We have successfully made it to Georgia! Throughout our long ride we stopped to visit the Sturgeon Aqua Farms. It was an amazing experience and the fish we saw were absolutely humongous! There was one that is worth 1.5 million dollars. that’s absolutely insane if you think about it. 

Sturgeon are raised in huge tanks. The nets around the side help to keep them from jumping out. Mr. Greg shared how these fish are raised.

A couple facts we learned about sturgeon were that they average about 10 feet in length and live in waters at about 24 degrees Celsius and that they are very interesting to touch. Kind of slimy like a catfish. They don’t have teeth as they are bottom feeders and feel around with there whiskers. They are like a over sized cat fish. 

It was a wonderful experience and if you ever have the chance go see these beautiful creatures

A huge thank you to all of our supporters for helping us get to where we are today.
