Seaweed sways quietly on the ocean floor off Florida. Suddenly something cuts through the water, disrupting the calm. It looks like a chainsaw. But the object isn’t a tool that’s come to life—it’s a smalltooth sawfish. FEELING NOSY These animals belong to a family of fish that have long, flat rostrums—or snouts—with sharp teeth sticking out around the edges. Related to sharks and rays, sawfish use their rostrums to dig under the ocean floor for crustaceans such as shrimp. They also snag other fish like herring by swiping at the prey with their spiky snouts. Smalltooth sawfish mostly live in warm, shallow waters off the coast of the southeastern United States and in parts of the Caribbean Sea. (Some also live off the west coast of Africa.) They can grow 18 feet long and weigh more than 700 pounds. Despite its big size and fearsome nose, the fish is usually gentle unless provoked. And the animal has few predators. But young, smaller sawfish must watch out for enemies such as large sharks and even dolphins. RELIEF FOR TEETH If a sawfish chips a tooth while defending itself, or if its chompers get worn down, it’s no big deal. The animal’s teeth continue to grow throughout its life. This amazing fish has one jaw-dropping snout! Text by Andrea Silen / NGS Staff
