00:04Hi The Nation, as usual we have some interesting information for you.
00:08There is the Elegatorgar which is an ancient fish species that lived in the age of the dinosaurs but still exists today.
00:16Want to know what it looks like? Let's take a look at the information.
00:22At first glance it looks like a crocodile, but what you are seeing is an Elegatorgar, one of the largest and oldest freshwater fish.
00:31still alive today.
00:33This freshwater monster lives in large rivers, swamps and lakes with calm water flows.
00:39They are found mostly in the Southeastern United States, especially in the Mississippi River valley, Texas and surrounding areas.
00:51What's more interesting is that this fish fossil existed 100 million years ago.
00:55That means they once lived alongside dinosaurs.
01:00Remarkably, despite having existed for hundreds of millions of years, this fish has undergone almost no significant evolutionary change.
01:08since prehistoric times.
01:11It's no wonder Elegatorgar is nicknamed a living fossil.
01:15In Indonesia, Elegatorgar is prohibited from being kept.
01:18This is because they are a type of invasive fish that can harm the ecosystem if released into open waters.
