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)
