Tell what you know about Coelacanths?

The coelacanths are a primitive form of fish related to lungfishes and tetrapods They have been present in the Earth's oceans since the end of the Cretaceous period. They are presently found in the Comoros, Kenya, Tanzania, Mozambique, Madagascar, and in iSimangaliso Wetland Park, Kwazulu-Natal in South Africa. With this distribution the number of individual fish is probably in the hthousands.


What do coelacanths eat?

Coelacanths eat whatever they find as they drift in the current. Because they can lift the upper jaw as well as move the lower jaw, coelacanths can open their mouths quite far to suck prey from crevices


Are the coelacanths okay?

Not really. In 1995, results from a dive counted about 40 coelacanths. The number has changed since then, but coelacanths are still nowhere near abundant. South African fisherman who fish for oilfish sometimes catch a coelacanth by accident. Without the strength to swim hundreds of meters back to their habitat, they usually die. Some of them get sold to scientists. As far as we know, coelacanths are very rare. Prior to around 1940, we thought they were extinct. They are still in danger.


Where is the coelacanths habitat?

Coelacanths have been found off the coast of southern Africa near Madagascar.
