The Smalltooth Sawfish is a Federally endangered species that is confined to a small portion of Florida’s coast. This project aims to fill existing knowledge gaps about sawfish in the Charlotte Harbor region of Florida. Specifically, we will identify ontogenetic shifts in sawfish habitat use and evaluate residency of juvenile sawfish in Charlotte Harbor by quantifying patterns in habitat use and home range as related to sex, size, and environmental factors.
