    First line even before the main article

    Summarized: Key Takeaways

    1. The Sargasso Sea is the breeding ground for all freshwater eels, where they travel thousands of miles to spawn and then die.

      Am I missing something? How is it a freshwater eel if they’re in the sea?

      oh damn they migrate to the sea before reproduction

      Confusing when you think of freshwater fish that can’t survive in saltwater. So then i’m guessing the baby eels just spread back out to freshwater sources
