Eel life history. Eels are any of several long, thin, bony fishes of the order Anguilliformes.

[8] In addition, they range from having 110 to 120 vertebrae. [9] While European eels tend to live approximately 15–20 years in the wild, some ...

Like all the eels of the genus Anguilla and the family Anguillidae, it is catadromous, meaning it spawns in the sea but lives parts of its life in freshwater.
