Only a fraction of the European eel population remains, but eels still face blocked migration routes, pollution and continued fishing across the continent.

Without real action now, recovery of this critically endangered species will remain out of reach. ----------------------------------------------------------- More information here: https://www.fishsec.org/2025/12/10/eus-annual-eel-fishing-closures-full-of-exemptions-roll-over-proposed/
