Atlantic Blue Marlin: The Ocean's Swift Hunter
The Atlantic blue marlin is a remarkable species of billfish that inhabits tropical and subtropical waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Known for its striking cobalt-blue body and long, sword-like bill, this fast and agile predator uses its bill to stun or injure prey like squid and mackerel before devouring them.
Female blue marlins can grow up to four times the size of males, reaching a staggering 5 meters (16 feet) in length and over 800 kilograms (1,800 pounds) in weight. These powerful fish are highly prized by game fishers and have gained fame in Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea. Despite their might, they are listed as vulnerable due to overfishing, making them a symbol of both oceanic beauty and fragility.
