Pike

The image shown is a representative illustration and does not depict every individual animal in this category.

Total number of species: 5

Hechte sind Süßwasser Raubfische, die mit ihrem länglichen Körper, der spitzen Schnauze und den großen, scharfen Zähnen leicht zu identifizieren sind. Sowohl ihre Rücken- als auch ihre Afterflossen sind weit hinten am Schwanz angesetzt, wodurch sie noch länger erscheinen, als sie ohnehin schon sind. Diese gefräßigen Jäger sind sowohl in Nordamerika, Europa als auch in Nordasien beliebte Wildfische. Das Tauchen mit Hechten ist ein unvergessliches Erlebnis, da sie recht groß werden können und mit ihren blass- bis leuchtend gelben, bohnenförmigen Flecken am ganzen Körper, und ihren leuchtend orange bis rot gefärbten Flossen unter Wasser sehr hübsch sind.
