10、nois Department of Natural Resources is returning a fish called the alligator gar to the states rivers.Some people call the fish a “living fossil.” Experts believe the fish first appeared during the Early Cretaceous period more than 100 million years ago.Randy Sauer is an Illinois state fisheries bi

As it rains and floods, biologists exp
