And if you haven't heard Daisies, ***** hear it. - Doctoxicated, on 05/04/2009, -0/+7The eels haven't released an album since the 90's so it's no surprise that their album sales are in decline, especially with the interwebz and all.
I may have missed the point of this article. - BossKey, on 05/04/2009, -1/+7Soon there won't be enough to fill a hovercraft with.
- jerbaker, on 05/04/2009, -0/+6What's the difference between a knee-jerk reaction to blame it on global warming and a knee-jerk reaction to deny it has anything to do with global warming?
- vicsvenge, on 05/04/2009, -1/+7NOOOOO!!!!!!!! SAVE THE EELS!
That's just not as sexy as save the whales... - pennvneff, on 05/04/2009, -1/+6Salmon, Tuna, now eels.
- inactive, on 05/04/2009, -0/+4japanese eel porn
- Mockylock, on 05/04/2009, -1/+5I think it's a trend that animals which are eaten by Asians (and in that geographic location) seem to be declining at a rapid pace. Before I'm buried, look at the trend. Other countries are hurting them as well, but they're also responsible for a number of recent whaling incidents as well as others.

- Doctoxicated, on 05/04/2009, -0/+4touche, I'll have to check that out thanks.
- Chode2235, on 05/04/2009, -0/+4My hovercraft is full of eels.
- dsmith5237, on 05/04/2009, -0/+3Is it really a mystery?
Overfishing + habitat loss + environmental damage = path to extinction.
When something in the ocean or water has a declining population, probably the first thing you want to do is stop fishing the **** out of it. - JRowe3388, on 05/04/2009, -0/+3Eels up inside ya!

- Treshnell, on 05/04/2009, -0/+3That's the first thing I thought when I read "Eels in Crisis," since I was listening to Beautiful Freak when I read it...
- zephc, on 05/04/2009, -0/+3Burrow through your mind, through your tummy, through your anus
Eels. - wejmahtin, on 05/04/2009, -1/+4they're in my belly.
unagi ftw - KimmyGibbler, on 05/04/2009, -0/+3I blame the Japanese fetish porn industry. You know what I'm talking about
- dilbert, on 05/04/2009, -0/+3Let me guess: it's a Mr.E?
- BrokenVisage, on 05/04/2009, -0/+3More importantly no eels were harmed during the making of Crysis.
- katorga, on 05/04/2009, -1/+3Too many people.
Every natural food resource that cannot be domestically cultivated is suffering because there are too many people willing to eat them leading to industrial harvesting operations that wipe out the ecosystem (not no mention pollution, etc). Anything with a long or complicated breeding cycle cannot survive commercial harvesting. Lobsters used to be the size of a dog in New England. Cod used to run so thick you could practically walk on them. And on and on.

- ell0bo, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2you're doing it wrong
- diggydougie, on 05/04/2009, -1/+3Someone needs to start "fertilizing" the oceans soon. Otherwise the oceans will be like the OK dust bowl. Everyone takes the fish out, but no one nurtures the future fish.
- shujin, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2Nooooooooo my precious suuushiiii
- gizram84, on 05/30/2009, -4/+6@broh
dude, you're an idiot. this has nothing to do with cattle, pork or chickens (which by the way have an extremely HIGH population).
This article was about eels and he pointed out a trend regarding a certain part of the world and eels. YOU are the one making it about race.
It's not racist if* the facts prove it.
*Notice the "if" - Scrappy1850, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2hawt
- AlienMushroom, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2Eels trouble fishermen who troubled eels.
- orville1151, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2None at all sir, none at all.
- DarkHornet, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2I'm a big animal person, but that doesn't blind me to this thing called the food chain, and survival of the fittest. First of all, we have to assume that the reason behind their disappearance is human-related. Not a huge stretch of the imagination is needed here. Yes, it is likely a cause of something that humans have done either directly or indirectly.
But the catch is this: entire species have gone extinct quite frequently in the past. Again, survival of the fittest, the circle of life, and all that. It might sound shallow to all the extreme animal rights activists out there, but this happens. If a species is unfit to survive in the earth's current environment, it will die off. The same thing is going to happen to humans, eventually.
I'm not saying this is a good thing, as it is quite the contrary. Every species lost messes with the ecosystem, and you hate to think that an entire species of creatures just suddenly doesn't exist, but it's simply a product of change. The world changes. Down the line, perhaps another branch of animal will take its place; one more fit to adapt to the way the world is presently. - PhantomRogue, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2All GREAT kinds of Sushi!
- Coffeedemon, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2Don't worry. The other countries are taking up the slack.

- inactive, on 05/04/2009, -3/+5It doesn't take a freakin genius idiot all the evolutionist talking about things evolved over millions of years. Yet in the span of 100 years since the beginning of the industrial age things are going extinct and you dont think their some kind of connection.
- sperez0986, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2Stop eating Eel sushi.
- tcquad, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2You know what might cause a shortage of eels? Generations of fishermen hunting them.
- lostlyrics, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2probably you meant 刺身, not 寿司
- specialcases, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2for anyone confused about where this is from:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AckvdGbk4w - Thuktun, on 05/04/2009, -1/+3"Eels in Crisis" sounds like an awesome name for a band.
- i4ybrid, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2That's a damn shame, eels are delicious. I don't think they are a popular enough dish in Western countries to decline because of overfishing...I could be totally wrong of course.
- orville1151, on 05/04/2009, -0/+2I love the response of some of the fishermen. "If you limit fishing for eels, you will destroy our livelihood.
Would extinction of the eels help their fishing business more?
The more I hear about humans, the better I like my dog. -
