Have you ever spotted a sawfish in the Edison cove? Staff report each sighting to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission (FWC), who carefully monitor and study these rare and spectacular animals.
After a recent series of sightings, FWC staff came to get a closer look and perform research on-site– see the images below for more information.
Did you know?
- Many species of sawfish are endangered or critically endangered.
