These freshwater giants may look fierce, but attacks against people are unknown. They can pose a passive danger, though -the fish's eggs are poisonous to humans if ingested.

Gars inhabit lakes, bayous, and bays, and able to tolerate brackish and even salt water. But these toothy giants prefer large,  slow-moving rivers. particularly those with wide floodplains, where shallow waters provide hatchlings with some protection from predators.
