Strange Sea Creature Spotted
A possibly new species of sea creature washed up on Folly Beach, South Carolina, last weekend. The creature may look dangerous, but it is actually harmless. A vet from the South Carolina aquarium classified it as a sturgeon. This sturgeon can grow up to be 15 feet long and 80 pounds. Sadly, the sturgeon was recently placed on the endangered species list because it is a popular source of caviar.
This creature is messed up! The article was fairly short, but it covered everything important. I like that the article was very clear on its classifications and technical terms. I like that the article included multiple pictures. I think that discovering a new species is very newsworthy.
Very interesting. What makes this sturgeon different from other classifications of sturgeon? How many of these creatures do they think still exist since it is on the endangered species list? Nice article.
