The white sturgeon and the araimpa (a type of fish found in the Amazon) share similarities in their ecological roles as large, ancient fish within their respective habitats. Both species are important for their ecosystems, contributing to the health of aquatic environments. Additionally, they exhibit unique adaptations for survival, such as specialized feeding mechanisms, and both are considered vulnerable due to habitat loss and overfishing. However, they belong to different families and inhabit distinct geographical regions.
WE ARE. People are the #1 predator to sturgeon but so are Sea Lions & Lampreys. Bass will eat baby sturgeon & many fish will eat sturgeon eggs, like Sculpin. Sturgeon are susceptible to many diseases and pollution and loss of habitat (by dams) endanger them also.

We do. The number one consumer of sturgeon are humans. Sea Lions and Lampreys also. Bass are known to eat baby sturgeon and many fish eat their eggs like Sculpin.
The main enemies of sturgeon are humans, who have historically overfished and polluted their habitats. Some natural predators of sturgeon include seals, otters, and some larger fish species. Predation of sturgeon eggs and larvae by birds and fish can also impact their populations.
there food was salmon, white fish, trout, suckers, sturgeon and squaqfish.

A sturgeon is a fish.
Just google sturgeon + inventor and you will get William Sturgeon.
White sturgeon females deposit as many as one million eggs which sink and stick to the gravel bottom after being fertilized by male sturgeon. With no care from their mother, the eggs hatch into larva similar in shape and size to half-inch long tadpoles in about one week. The larva drift in the current, living off their yolk-sacs for three to four weeks while they grow larger and develop fins, rays (stiff bony spines), and scutes (horn-like plates).
