In one hatching a female can lay 10-20 million eggs. This is an extremely large amount and you might be wondering how they are becoming endangered if so many eggs are laid. Many eels do not end up hatching, do not survive the long, hard journey to freshwater, get eaten by predators, die of starvation, die of habitat loss or die from being fished. This creature is truly amazing and unique in many different ways, so we should do our best to keep it from extinction.
