The conservation status of alligator gar is currently uncertain due to limited information; however, observations of historical trends and preliminary information suggests that the alligator gar population has declined substantially over the past 50 years warranting further investigation. This information is provided to assist in the range wide assessment and to identify areas for collaboration; the focusing of efforts; and to encourage further investigation and discussion.
