Sturgeon Moon Name Origin. What is a Sturgeon Moon? The full moon that appears in August is called the Sturgeon Moon. North American fishing tribes called Augustâs full moon the sturgeon moon since the species was abundant during this month, especially in the Great Lakes and other major bodies of water.
Community Q&A. The term âsturgeonâ actually refers to 26 different species of the acipenseridae fish family. Sturgeon are found swimming along the rivers, lakes and coasts of Eurasia and North America. Growing to a size of up to 18 feet (5.5 m) long, this large fish is harvested for both its meat and its roe. The roe is later turned into caviar and sold at specialty shops throughout the world.
