This is indeed a gar! Alligator Gar to be exact. The “Bar Gar” is an elusive but exciting find! #GarWeek

I’ve been fascinated by leucistic/albino animals since childhood, when my grandpa told me a story of a white deer he encountered. Here are a few I’ve found in aquaria & exhibits. #GarWeek

It's Gar Week! Alligator Gar are Illinois' largest fish and due to overfishing and a lack of public knowledge were functionally extinct by 1966. However, in the last few years, we have been reintroducing them! As a resident of a river town, these fish are integral to the ecosystem. Also super cool!

Alligator #gar are an incredible fish, and one of the largest freshwater fish in North America- reaching over 6 feet long and weighing over 100 pounds. They may even reach 8+ feet and 300+ pounds! This skull was photographed by @nerdrvt.bsky.social on a BTS tour of NEAQ several years ago. #GarWeek
An alligator gar skull displayed as a biofact, being held by an educator from the New England Aquarium. The skull is over a foot long and features many conical teeth.

The trip culminated in DIY alligator gar day where a “short stop” turned into an all-day pursuit of gar in canals. After running out of food & water we landed this gar on an artificial lure. One of my favorite catches ever. #GarWeek

I'm a day late for the start of #GarWeek, but I thought I would share some of my old #GARtwork in celebration of these awesome fish.
An illustration of an Alligator Gar eyeing a duck. The point of view for the illustration is underwater looking up at the surface. The gar is positioned directly beneath a female mallard duck, who is blissfully unaware of her impending doom. The bottom of the water is rocky and silty, and a fallen tree branch juts of the water on the right side of the image.

The Florida gar is abundant in the Everglades, quite visible in wetlands & canals. At times, you can get bites on every cast (landing one is a different story). #GarWeek #25DaysofFishmas
Florida gar, caught in a pond in the Everglades. Hundreds of gar here and  you would get a bite on every cast. You just had to be aware of alligators!

@solomonrdavid.bsky.social says it's #garweek, so here you go with a CT scan of one of NHMLA's spotted gar specimens. You can see the tough ganoid scales and also a brief internal view of the vertebral column and abbreviated heterocercal caudal fin 🐠🐟🦑
