Species Overview

Bluegill

The bluegill is the most common sunfish in North America and often the first fish a young angler catches. Its deep body, dark ear flap, and iridescent blue-green colors make it easy to identify. A fierce predator of insects despite its small size.

유럽뱀장어

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.
