Remember all those halibut and arrowtooth flounder stomachs we collected? Here’s why! Just doing our part to help understand and possibly improve/save our fisheries.
Pacific halibut and arrowtooth flounder have a reputation for being voracious predators and may compete with each other for food and space. Our new research, led by Cheryl Barnes, helps us better understand how these large, toothy flatfish coexist. Arrowtooth flounder have very large mouths and are able to eat the same types of food as smaller-sized Pacific halibut. But once halibut grow larger, they may have an advantage when foraging due to their size and strength. While these predators might not earn a gold star for sharing, their different strategies for success mean that they both get a seat at the snack table.
Our enormous gratitude goes to the captains at Shelter Lodge and Anchor Point Lodge, who provided more than 2,000 fish stomachs for the project! This research was also made possible by the generosity of our funders, the Po***ck Conservation Cooperative Research Center, the Rasmuson Fisheries Research Center, and the Northern Gulf of Alaska Applied Research Award. - Juneau CFOS UAF
