Abstract:

North Carolina is home to a prehistoric species that was a common menu item along the east coast in the 19th century: Atlantic sturgeon. Although the extensive estuary system of North Carolina has allowed the Atlantic sturgeon to thrive, it has recently been placed on the endangered species list.
