Large-bodied fish tend to be slow-growing, late-to-mature, high-value species. Many of them are also migratory or have large home ranges. All of these characteristics make large fish more vulnerable to extinction. Take sturgeon for example females of some species don't reproduce until they are over 20 years old; they are full of a product worth thousands of dollars (caviar); and many species must migrate long distances to spawn. These traits make sturgeon particularly susceptible to threats such as overexploitation and habitat fragmentation.
