I feel like the importance of direct evidence to the scientific community was understated. Also understated was how this relationship of modern science being able to experimentally confirm predictions made decades earlier is very frequent. For examples, 2017 nobel prize in physics was awarded for the "discovery" of gravity waves, but Einstein had predicted their existence and their basic behavior in 1916 based on available experimental evidence. Yet the work of these modern scientists is important and worthy of our praise. Direct evidence is not only necessary to confirm the hypothesis, but gives us additional nuance that is essential for making further predictions.

[@Late0NightPC]

Agreed. It's also one of the many reasons that photo of a black hole was so massive back in 2019. We already knew what a Black hole would look like from the math and simulations of them, but actually being able to take a photograph of one and confirm that those "on paper" discoveries were correct in practice was a huge deal. Science is all about figuring out "How the world around us most likely works". The math and models can only get us so sure that we understand something, so the more confirmations that "that is how it works" we can get, the better.

[@MinuteEarth]

Agreed in general! But let's hold onto that Nobel Prize for Eelology until we actually find an eel egg.

actually einstein didn't predicted well sorta of, he actually hated them and thought they shouldn't exist his model just happen to predict them as pointed by others. once he made his model public at lead to many jumping in and toying with his model leading to many ideas like black hole which he also rejected at first.

[@carsonhunt4642]

Sounds like basically the opposite of salmon, migrate thousands of miles to fresh water rivers to mate, and die off. Babies swim out to the ocean to live for a couple years before they make the trip to spawn. So you essentially miss the middle stages. I wonder if this is why early fish trappers made salmon extinct in so many native streams, because they not only blocked off 100% of the river with a net, but since the salmon came back each year they prob thought it was fine to keep doing it (not realizing the salmon coming up stream were few years old). That’s prob too much credit tho lol, more likely just greed.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if I remember correctly, previously the different life stages of eels were thought of as different species and that's why no one found any small eels. Eels mainly arrive along the European coast as glass eels, not as fully developed eels. Glass eels looks quite different to adult eels, and therefore were thought of as a different species. After glass, it becomes yellow eel and when sexually mature it turns to silver and begins it's journey back to the sargasso.

[@tiffanysandmeier4753]

I feel like this is an oversimplification of what was discovered. Yes, they knew that the saragasso sea was the breeding grounds, but didn't know how the eels got there. Also talking the size of eels seems to dismiss the fact that eels at different stages of their life cycle look considerably different. As in there are different names for the different stages. Sometimes so different that it wasn’t known that they were the same species until fairly recently.

[@RGTheProud]

Also eels don't reach Europe fully mature. They are still very small when they enter European river systems and then grow up there.

[@pyropulseIXXI]

Didn't know how the eels got there? Are you serious? Yeah, we used to think they just flew there, but more modern theories postulated that they teleported. It was only in the 2020s that we learned that the eels SWAM there

[@thorjelly]

Just want to quickly clarify to everyone that European eels have been bred in captivity. We do know a lot about their reproductive cycle, we just don't know their migration patterns and behavior in the wild. We've seen European eel eggs, just not wild ones. We've seen adults developing gonads, etc. Farmed eel still come from the ocean however because bred eel larvae do not live for very long.

[@alfonsoballesteros9752]

I think that I need to share my knowledge about what I know from the baby eels and I didn't found on the video. First of all I have to say that I am from Spain and in my country we have a long tradition will eels and most important with BABY eels (called "angulas" in Spain). I think that maybe this is the only part in the world that this happens, but it will be great if someone else could share if their culture have this food too. In the northern part of the country, on the Cantabrian sea, for many years it was so common for the fishermen to find gooey balls of baby eels very close to the dock. At that time the product was very cheap because it was like the rubbish from the sea. But then it came the japanese people and their love for adult eels and their need for them to keep rice fields free of insects, so they started to buy all the bay eels to grown them in adults (I never knew if it was true or just a lie for raising the price), but because of the increasing demand of the japanese people and also the small amount of baby eels that you can find, the price on the market for this product got crazy, to the point that it is the second most expensive fish product that you can find (after caviar). Because of this and the fact that spanish people were used to this product, a man find an amazing idea for recycle bad fish and to keep the tradition of eating this baby eels. He decided to take the fish that can't be sold (because of their size their aspect or any other reason) and make like a minced meat, then cook it and cut it on the same size and form of the baby eels. The product called "gulas" now it can be found on every supermarket on Spain, it is cheap, healthy and tasty, and the true "angulas" can still be purchased on the market at prices around 1000-1500€/kg only for those who can pay for them or for very special events. They are not amazing on taste and surprisingly very similar to the fake ones.
