Sawfish are large rays belonging to the family Pristidae. They are best known for their long, flattened rostrum lined with tooth-like projections. This remarkable structure contains electroreceptors that help the animal detect prey hidden beneath sand or mud, and it can also be used to stun or injure fish.
Sawfish inhabit coastal waters, estuaries, lagoons, and river mouths in tropical and subtropical regions. Although they appear intimidating, they generally pose little threat to humans. Today, all species of sawfish are considered endangered or critically endangered due to habitat loss and accidental capture in fishing gear.
