Russian sturgeon — size comparison — facts and sources
The Russian sturgeon is associated with the Caspian and Black Sea basins. It uses coastal and estuarine waters and deeper river sections. Both migratory and lifelong freshwater populations are known.
It feeds on molluscs, crustaceans and small fish over sand or mud. Larger gatherings may form during wintering and reproductive migrations. Spawning occurs over stone or gravel; access to these sites matters for natural population renewal.
