Look, it's a huge fish that I can't possibly eat or afford to have mounted. I think I'll kill it just for fun. :drool:

That's real sad that something that old is killed for sport.

Way to go guy.
If he wanted to kill something really old he could spear his own mother!!!!

Now all the young fish in his neighborhood will be playing on his lawn... sad.

*sigh* C'est la vie. And the articles notes that the sturgeon population is just now beginning to show some signs of recovery. What a shame and loss of legacy.

It is a shame to kill such an old fish but I'm guessing that fish is past it's prime and might not even contribute to the breeding population anymore.

Actually, a female sturgeon that size would lay thousands of even hundreds of thousands of eggs.

That is a shame
