Eels in crisis.

It seems our eels are in crisis, the Environment Agency claims they have suffered a 95% decline in the last 25 years (the eels not the Environment Agency sadly) nobody seems sure of the cause.
Personally I blame bad press. Think about it, eels have never really had any good press have they, they are never on TV saving small children from drowning, or dragging survivors from plane crashes, no they are always shown as slimey sneaky things who hide in our rivers and look far too much like their even worse cousins the snake! Lets face it they are never going to get on in life with a reputation like that. Wayne
