Passionate about all things Australian. Sawfish live in different places, depending on the species. They are found in the tropical and subtropical waters of the Indian Ocean and Pacific Oceans, e.g. the waters around the northern half of Australia, although some are found as far south as Sydney. They are also found in Atlantic waters, in tropical and sub-tropical regions. Habitats vary.
Sawfish are shark-like rays characterized by long, tooth-studded snouts. Individuals range in size from 2 to 20 feet and can weigh more than 1,000 pounds. Like most sharks and rays, sawfish are exceptionally vulnerable to overexploitation due to their slow growth, late maturity, and small number of young. All seven species worldwide are classified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as Critically Endangered.
