Species Overview
Atlantic Herring
The Atlantic herring is one of the most abundant fish species on Earth, forming massive schools of billions of individuals. It has played a crucial role in European history, fueling trade routes and even wars.
ヨーロッパウナギ
The European eel undertakes one of nature's most remarkable migrations, traveling 5,000 km from European rivers to the Sargasso Sea to spawn and die. Despite centuries of study, its breeding grounds were only recently confirmed.
