After three weeks of treatment, the first-ever endangered sawfish to be rescued from a die-off in the Florida Keys died at a Sarasota rehabilitation facility Thursday, according to the animal’s caretakers.

The sawfish, a prehistoric-looking endangered species with a chainsaw-like snout, was pulled from waters off Cudjoe Key on April 5 after it was spinning in circles and showing signs of distress.

Biologists drove it on a roughly seven-hour journey to Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium about a week later, where it remained until it died this week.
