Is Sturgeon Kosher?

Sturgeon can refer to one of 27 different species of fish (in the family Acipenseridae). Sturgeon can be quite large fish, with some growing up to 12 feet! Sturgeon are primarily fished for their roe (to be processed into caviar), but their flesh is popular to be consumed as well.

According to Chabad, who received their information from the Orthodox Union, sturgeon is NOT a kosher fish.
