Animal description

About the Atlantic Sailfish (Istiophorus albicans)

The Atlantic sailfish is a large marine fish species with an expanding "sail-like" dorsal fin and is found in temperate ocean waters of the Atlantic and Caribbean. The sailfish is metallic in appearance, typically blue, grey, or silver in coloration, darker at the top, and white-grey underbelly. The sailfish is well known for its elongated upper jaw, which protrudes into a long pointed bill. When extended, the fish's dorsal fin is often as tall as the 3-meter length of the sailfish's body.
