| The Pirarucu (Arapaima gigas) is one of the world's largest freshwater fish. It is endemic to the Amazon River and its tributaries. It is a predatory fish attaining lengths of 450 cm (14.7 feet). This species comprises an important fishery for communities in and along the Amazon. Pirarucu are over fished and much speculation about the future of the fishery exists. The meat of this fish is considered a delicacy. Overexploitation of Amazonian fisheries is a critically important issue to the communities of humans in and along the Amazon River. Many of the fisheries are stressed and over harvest is commonplace. There is a growing industry culturing this species and many farms now exist along the Amazon. Photographed in Iquitos, Peru, 2018. This is a close up of scale detail and color on an adult. | |
