Fish like gar, paddlefish, and buffalofishes have rapid growth in their early years, reach maturity several years after hatching, and can live decades after that. Once these fish reach maturity, their focus shifts from growth to producing the next generation. pic.twitter.com/soxzJ3pjAS

HE GOT THAT DOG IN EM: However, many native nongame fishes, including gar, are often called “rough fish.” These species with impressive lifespans have high conservation value – and deserve all the appreciation we can give. #garweek
