Eels from Ireland travel as far as Azores in new study
Description: An international research team tracked more than 700 eels as they made their annual mass migration from Europe to the Sargasso Sea. The researchers learned more about eel behavior patterns. All eels exhibited diel vertical migrations, swimming though deeper water during the day and moving closer to the surface at night. This understanding of eel biology will help manage and conserve the eel population across Europe and beyond more effectively. [Source: Farming Life]
