Great to see that #eel smuggling is mentioned in the German GEOLino Extra Magazine about (#wildlife) crimes!

We need to stop the ongoing construction, we need more people at the Una. From Croatia and other countries. Rivers unite. That‘s why I will go there tomorrow. Join if you can.

When a papermill boasted how they could increase Google Scholar citations and showed their working, Reese Richardson and I decided to try for ourselves.

EU Environment Ministers validated the trilogue agreement on the Nature Restoration Law (NRL)! This is the final step before this law can enter into force. #restorenature

The Guardia Civil has seized more than 800 kilos of illegally fished eels. In addition, 21 people have been arrested and an international criminal organisation dedicated to the trafficking of eels between Spain and Portugal has been dismantled. https://t.co/QADuDYnM8F

Recreational fishing is also about food. Here is our new paper with a global analysis of the relevance of eating fish caught by recreational fishers in @NatureFoodJnl @Nature

A sad but good example that closing fisheries is not the silver bullet to solve complex issues. Poaching will always continue and banning legal fishery results in the loss of control. This is the mayhem we also have to expect in Europe if glass eel fishery is shut down.

Speak of the devil. This afternoon DFO announced 26 river side arrests for unauthorized elver fishing, 6 vehicles seized and 6.5 kgs of elvers released back into rivers. The RCMP also laid assault charges This is a trail camera image of poaching this morning in Hubbards.

Unfortunately, this was predictable

[Deeland @Eel_land]

Surprise, surprise, criminals do not follow the rules?

The same study also revealed that eel fry (glass eels) were imported into Hong Kong from Senegal and Mauritania. On 14 March 2024, Hong Kong authorities seized European eels sent from Mauritania… https://t.co/1kHnCZY2Kf

Canada has officially cancelled the 2024 Maritime elver fishery after admitting it cannot manage what has become annual out of control harvesting in NS and NB rivers. Commercial licence holders were notified this afternoon. The baby eels are shipped live to Asia for growing out.
