Giant prehistoric salmon had tusk-like spikes used for defence, building nests: study

April 24, 2024
A new paper says a giant salmon that lived five million years ago in the coastal waters of the Pacific Northwest used tusk-like spikes as defence mechanisms and for building nests to spawn.The initial fossil discoveries of the 2.7-metre-long salmon in Oregon in the 1970s were incomplete and led researchers to suggest the fish had fang-like teeth.
