It would seem that the ban on fishing ‘Royal’ sturgeon is a relic of the past, but at the beginning of the XXI century a certain Robert Davis, caught in the net of it is this 3-foot fish.

Being law-abiding, the man reported the catch to the coast guard. Those advised to inform Buckingham Palace and send a formal letter to the Queen. The fisherman has graciously allowed us to leave the sturgeon itself. Glad Davis put the fish on the auction, and his luck is over. According to the law of Royal fish you can eat or donate, but not sell. Sturgeon withdrew.

That’s why the staff of the Palace stands out that there didn’t happen anything like that.
