Shortfin Eels are common across Australia and New Zealand, thriving in rivers, lakes, and estuaries. Nocturnal hunters, they feed on fish, insects, and crustaceans. Remarkably, adults migrate thousands of kilometers to spawn in the Coral Sea. Hardy and adaptable, they are both a cultural food source and prized catch.
