Fascinating creatures.
I've experienced a noticeable increase in internet eel content lately. I can't help but wonder if it isn't in part because of TikTok's "eel pit guy" [1]. I'm not sure when I started following him, but it was a great content story. He built an eel pit (exactly what it sounds like) beneath his house taking much care to create an ideal environment for eels. I was ecstatic when it finally came time for the eels to explore their new home.
Also eel-related: if you came to this comment section out of interest in electric eels (not actually eels technically), I highly recommend "The Shocking History of Electric Fishes" [2]. It's a fun read (for a history book).
