Swordfish face several threats, including overfishing due to high demand for their meat, which can lead to population declines. Bycatch in commercial fishing operations also poses a significant risk, as they can be unintentionally caught in nets targeting other species. Additionally, climate change impacts, such as rising ocean temperatures and changing prey distribution, threaten their habitat and food sources. Conservation efforts and sustainable fishing practices are crucial to ensuring their survival.
Swordfish protect themselves primarily through their speed and agility in the water, allowing them to evade predators. Their long, pointed bills can also be used defensively to slash at potential threats. Additionally, swordfish can dive to great depths, where fewer predators exist, further enhancing their chances of survival.
