Paddlefish: Anatomy of a Living Fossil
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 04. 2020
- The North American Paddlefish, now thought to be the only species of its kind after the presumed extinction of the Chinese Paddlefish, is a living fossil with complex and fascinating anatomical features. ERDC scientists are studying the strong, web-like structure of its rostrum, for example, in hopes of replicating it for use as material to protect military buildings, vehicles and soldiers from attack. Here, ERDC's Jan Jeffrey Hoover provides an in-depth look at Paddlefish anatomy. Paddlefish are native to the Mississippi River and its tributaries.
The specimen here was handled carefully and in accordance with institutionally approved animal care guidelines. During filming, it was immersed in river water at 2-3 minute intervals and, at the end of filming, was released unharmed. It can be seen at the end of the video swimming off away from the camera.

I worked in paddlefish research on the rivers of Montana for a few years. I did not know many of these facts, they are even cooler than I thought! Thanks for the info!
Please read the description. This fish was immersed in water every 2-3 minutes. It was not harmed during the filming. Enjoy the video. Thanks.
Is that not the equivalent of water boarding to humans? Feels like people are trying to pacify sociopathic behaviour with straw man excuses and the lot of the bewildered herd just buy it. Regardless of this guy releasing this fish and doing whatever he’s doing that fish is hypoxic.
I caught one of these on the White River in Arkansas back in the early 80's. I of course snagged him while reeling in my line from fishing for catfish. My grandfather told me what it was and I have never seen one since. I also caught that day a sturgeon in the same area. Again never happened again. So cool to see this documentary explaining this complex fish.
wow paddle fish can stay this long out of the water without dying ??!!

I was thinking the same thing.
@@LMRCCvideos dude. That's like me only letting you breathe every 2-3 minutes. A good portion of people/ fish/ whatevers will die.
At first the fish was expressing a desire to leave. About half way he's very docile, almost rubbery. Now when you let him go be sure to administer CPR because he can't breathe on his own.
I wonder if this is what an alien abduction is like. Ok Bob, let's proceed with the rectal exam. Whoa, Sam. Do they normally wiggle like that?
@@thedillpickle100 I think of things like this when people say aliens wouldn’t be interested in us because we aren’t interesting to them
The fish: im dying
I've seen them after riding in the bed of a pickup for two days an still flopping. MO's Osage river below Bagnel Dam, and also in the Lake of the Ozarks. Recently a new record has been established at 149# 10 oz. March 2022.
Amazing! So many things I didn’t know about paddlefish. I love them, the juveniles are so cute with their huge paddles and little bodies.
A friend of mine just caught a paddle fish in Tuttle creek Kansas. Never seen one before until then. It’s an interesting fish like the gar
This is so cool. Thank you for making this!
Thank you for releasing!!!!!!!!!!!!😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Hey thanks! You absolutely answered so many questions .Amazing video 👏. Hey is there any way you could do a video about catfish?
I came here to see how a paddlefish looks like ! I became very sad after I got to know Yahtzee paddlefish were extinct and they belonged to Jurassic era
China has a way of doing that to many creatures these days
can we raise paddle fish on a outdoor fish pond?
Is he gonna put it back in the water or not???
Dude I'm right thare with you. I couldn't hold my breath this long.
Hi, is there no rig to catch these fish without having to snag fish for them? I'd like to safely release the fish eventually and snag fishing can cause serious damage on the fish :P
Love these fish! Great video!
Dam didn't know they could/ do leap... Hopefully I'll see some some day. Their cousins, the gulf sturgeon are quite a sight and very much worth saving
"Guys, you're not gonna believe what just happened..."
Funfact: very recently it was discovered stergent and paddlefish can hybridize
Say what
Sturgeon and paddlefish hybridized where ?.
I saw that to on some CZcams channel lol that's wild
Where were the underwater shots filmed? The water is so clear!
Poor little paddlefish he's cooking it alive in the Sun he's going to go back into his paddlefish family with a sunburn
I just had a paddlefish steak last weekend and man they are good
heard about the chinese one finally being declared extinct, makes me sad such cute fishes.
least the american one is still around for now
I caught one of these beautiful fish today on the Mississippi. It was 79.1 lbs. I felt bad catching it. Here in ND there is catch and release days, and days where you have to tag and keep them by law. Unfortunately I had to tag him. I would have loved to release him. It was a rush fighting a paddlefish that size.
Then release it. Don’t let others subject you to your compassion on days you feel a certain way.
The law is wrong. Release it. Who is going to stop you? Be kind to nature. The laws of man mean nothing to nature.
I would let it go anyway
thank you😊
Thank you for the info. Can you release him back into the water..
So cool! Wow. Thank you
These big Paddlefish are so cool !!!! I hope their populations continue to regrow. I want to see a paddlefish one day with my own eyes.
My fave freshwater fish! I did not know they even existed until I learned to scuba dive and paddlefish inhabit most of the quarries where I dive. I'm so sad about the Chinese paddlefish's extinction. Thanks so much for this video!
Very interesting thank you for the video
Wow! So much cool stuff about a fish I somehow barely knew existed!
Super cool creature.
They are here in Montana as well
Very informative vid!
Glad it was helpful!
This is cool!
Way to go, Jan!
The freshwater version of the basking shark
Paddlefish exist in PA as well!
Paddlefish are not just in the Mississippi River........
He looks like an Amish from a distance but carries an encyclopedia inside his head.
How can you tell between a male or a female paddlefish?
Now fossilized in the Maastrichtian Hell Creek Formation at a site in North Dakota, sturgeon and paddlefish believed killed in the K-T impact event of 65 million years ago are stars in a scientific paper by Melanie During, Jan Smit &c., “The Mesozoic terminated in boreal spring,” Nature, March 2022; doi:10.1038/s41586-022-04446-1. No paywall. The authors there discuss tiny spherules caught in the gill rakers of those fish; the spherules were ejecta from the impact returning to earth and falling in the water around the fish, which were probably feeding at the time. The impact’s massive seismic disturbance, arriving in North Dakota a few minutes later, then buried them. The open paddlefish mouth shown in this video makes it obvious how easily the spherules must have gotten into the gill rakers of the fossil fish. Pretty cool, if the authors’ reconstruction stands up over the long run.
Keeping that fish out of water for so long, do you intend to kill that fish?
Guys I have a ton of videos on my CZcams catching these. Very beautiful fish.
The only bone in a paddlefish is the jaw. So it is not called a boney fish
dude put the fish back in the water
In one of the comments they explained that during filming it was immersed in water at 2 to 3 minute intervals. They were careful not to let it die.
it is the true Pogfish
A tiny bit of info in the begining, such as: "The paddlefish does not die." Would be great. I really was not interested in watching the fish struggle for life while this man spewed, albeit interesting, information for way wayyyyyyyy too long. This was made in 2020, you know better.
Great information, and nice shots, beyond the ridiculous suffocation of the fish you're trying to advocate for protecting. It's clear you know exactly what you're doing, but to someone knew(ish) to the paddlefish, that was pretty fucked.

Well that fish just died lol
The Chinese extinct paddlefish was 20 feet..
Boney fish? You sure about that?
That paddle fish is probably gonna die that’s a long time with out his air 😏🧠
This specimen suffocated....
Put M back in the water! How bout we check how long you can Last underwater!!
I hope the fish is wearing sunblock!
making more videos of them will surely make them extinct
These are the best tasting fish one can eat
Stop your endless talking and put the fish back.
