Asking for a friend.
You’re obviously not vegan, so simply adjust your personal ethics until it lets you do what you want. Can’t answer the second part of the question.
The logical kind. The answer to “is there any ethical way to eat sturgeon?” is a simple no.
That’s kinda subjective. Also even for a vegan you could construct an ethical situation for that.

Dude, I’ll be your friend.
Farmed would probably be your best bet. Failing that, they’re all at least threatened and you probably want to be able to talk to the exact person who caught it, or you can’t trust it was killed for a legitimate reason. The nice thing about a freshwater fish is you’re not contributing to ocean fishing, at least, which is famously lawless and awful.

I’m probably being a little facetious here, I think I kind of get what you meant, but isn’t the whole reason “to sell it to someone who wants to eat it” regardless of which one was killed?
Like, if it was it was road kill (?) or something. Maybe a conservationist came into the possession of a freshly dead sturgeon and wants OP to cook it. I dunno, I’ve had similar things happen, I posted about the time I got to try kopi luwak here.
Otherwise, no, it’s farmed or you’re SOL. Eating endangered animals is generally agreed to be a dick move.

I keep running into sturgeons in my car. Hate when that happens.
I’m not sure I understand. I’m speaking specifically about this particular situation you mentioned : what’s the difference in terms of legitimacy between the two kills, if both were made to be sold to feed someone else?
I understand the legal aspect, like endangered species protections, etc, but that’s another topic entirely. Or is it actually not and you actually meant “legality”?
