American Eel: Puerto Rico Perspective

32 min8 september 2024

The American Eel: very demure, very mindful. So demure, in fact, that nobody has ever seen them spawn! These wonderfully mysterious fish start and end life in the Sargasso Sea with an incredible freshwater migration in between. We continue to unravel some of the mystery around this migratory fish with guest Ámbar Torres Molinari. This episode is dedicated to her late advisor Dr. Thomas J. Kwak and all the amazing field technicians who helped make her American Eel research possible in Puerto Rico.
