Smalltooth sawfish commonly eat crustaceans and mollusks. They use their elongated rostrums to dig for their food in the sand and mud.
Smalltooth sawfish are protected under the Endangered Species Act. More specifically, it is now illegal to catch or otherwise harm a sawfish. As a result, Fishermen who may accidentally catch sawfish while fishing for other species are being educated on how to safely release the sawfish without harming it or getting hurt themselves. Florida, Louisiana and Texas have all enacted laws that prohibit "taking" sawfish. And Florida currently even has a ban on gill nets in state waters. The smalltooth sawfish is listed on the IUCN's red list as critically endangered and on the verge of extinction."Endangered Fishes and Marine Animals: Smalltooth Sawfish | MyHydros.org | All About Water."
