Officially Listed as Endangered, Sturgeon Are on the Slow Way Back. January 31, 2012 Brad Sewell. Our oceans are home to any number of remarkable, even bizarre, creatures. Today, one of the countryâs largestâthe Atlantic sturgeonâhas officially been protected under the Endangered Species Act (ESA).

Sturgeon are found swimming along the rivers, lakes and coasts of Eurasia and North America.
