Import numbers rarely match the source exportersâ stats. Reasons for import-export statistical discrepancies include re-exports, time lags, misallocations, distinct trade reporting systems, different quantity measurements and country confidentiality rules. Also, transportation and insurance costs are sometimes added to import totals.
Northern pike are freshwater fish with elongated bodies and flattened, duckbill-shaped snouts. Their mouths comprise half the length of their head and are full of sharp teeth.

Northern Cardinal - Cardinalis cardinalis. The cardinal is about eight inches in length. It has a black mask on its face; a crest on its head; and a short, cone-shaped bill. The mask on the female is usually lighter than the mask on the male. Cardinals are known for their bright red color, but only the male is red. The female is a dull brown or olive color with dull red on her wings and tail. The northern cardinal can be found in most parts of United States east of the Rocky Mountains. It is also found in parts of Arizona, California and New Mexico. The range of the cardinal has increased in the last 50 years to include New York and New England.
