NO es normal verlos mientras se navega por el Rio Parana. Sólo acontece esto cuando los esteros y riachos donde tienen su hábitat comienzan a secarse como es el caso de esta bajante critica excepcional, la más marcada de los últimos 50, 75, 90 años. Se los observa en riachos interiores, próximos a desembocaduras y en la costa en zonas profundas con camalotes cerca para enmascararse.
