After more than 150 million years, you'd think they'd grow tired of the same old look, but sturgeon are some of the most stubbornly unchanged animals on earth! The Lake Sturgeon can live for more than 100 years, supplement their poor eyesight with taste-testing whiskers and sport armor-like skin that's as tough as it is smooth to the touch!

You can meet (and even touch!) these aptly named "living fossils" in our new Ridges to Rivers gallery!
