Hidden Dance of Eels
Hans Dortmans / Netherlands / 2024 / 72 min
Where eels spawn is one of marine biology’s unsolved mysteries. How exactly do these long sea creatures reproduce? Small eel larvae have already been found in the Sargasso Sea, an area in the Atlantic Ocean. Eels have been on the international red list of animals threatened by extinction for years. This is why a group of international scientists sets off to find the eels’ suspected birthplace. Can the researchers learn enough about the endangered animals to save them?
