Overharvest of their eggs and dammed waterways were two main reasons #Paddlefish are now considered vulnerable. https://t.co/cMCthNW83N

A #Paddlefish's gill rakers allow them to switch from filtration to active selection based on size and abundance. https://t.co/y7Wh09ZLgl

#Paddlefish are broadcast spawners; female egg release depends on water level and water temperature. https://t.co/MkY3aTQpgP

There seems to be morphological differences in #Paddlefish rostrum based on age and habitat (rivers & lakes). https://t.co/no6p8rDqiA

Studies on #Paddlefish suggest they had the genetic tools to grow limbs prior to that seen in tetrapod evolution. https://t.co/uH3iQi4pkz

@BrandeusOCS4012 Other ways tail slapping can be used are for herding, warning signs, aggression, and mating signs https://t.co/Bx7bbKF1K9

@BrandeusOCS4012 Dolphins, Killer whales, Beluga whales, and Humpback whales also use tail slapping technique for communication. #OCS4012
