HOLY HYBRID!

This rare catch (and release) from the Trinity River is a hybrid between a female alligator gar and a male longnose gar. 🧐 The long, triangular snout is a telltale feature.

Gars have existed for more than 200 million years, diverging into separate species about 100 million years ago. But due to their incredibly slow rate of evolution, hybrids can happen (though rare).

But that’s not all….

Gar may contribute to the fight against cancer.

They have the lowest known genetic mutation rate of jawed vertebrates, thanks to an exceptionally efficient DNA repair system. Understanding these DNA repair pathways may have promising implications for cancer research!

Congratulations on this incredible catch 👏

Saturday part4. I was happy to have my great granddaughter Melody along. Great grandson Jacob is doing well in his deck hand training. Carrying on the tradition from grandsons Eric, Rusty, great nephew Austin, granddaughter Audrey, and now son Billy is assisting me in training up grandson Michael and Jacob.
