                                          from spawning grounds
                            in clouds of milt and roe,
                 appearing out
          of the Bermuda Triangle —
                               a storm cloud of imagos,
                                        more dined upon
                                               than dining.
an unimaginable trek;
                      no circled wagons
                  to protect against predation
             as they vitrify.

         they make no sibling friends,
                     or they would spend
                             the long, long
                                     journey
                                              mourning.

from spawning grounds in clouds of milt and roe, appearing out of the Bermuda Triangle — a storm cloud of imagos, more dined upon than dining. an unimaginable trek; no circled wagons to protect against predation as they vitrify. they make no sibling friends, or they would spend the long, long journey mourning.

"Anguilla anguilla".

(European eel)

Excellent piece on #GlassEel trade in @mongabay.com - and as ever @monicapons.bsky.social is absolutely spot on. Eel consumption always relies on wild caught fish, & the valuable trade attracts criminal networks #IWT #WildlifeTrade #EuropeanEel #EnvironmentalCrime

Parece que no somos los únicos idiotas que seguimos comiendo angulas en PELIGRO CRÍTICO DE EXTINCIÓN aunque en Londres ya no se aprecia el "plato local" #GlassEel #EndangeredSpecies www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2m-...
