The European eel or common eel (Anguilla anguilla) is a species of eel, a snake-like, catadromous fish. The European eel, Anguilla anguilla, is one of 19 species in their genus, found in the Northern Atlantic south to Mauritius, the Mediterranean, North and Baltic Seas and the rivers that feed into these ocean bodies. Anguilla anguilla can reach a length of 1.5 m in exceptional cases, but are normally around 60–80 cm, and rarely reach more than 1 m. While captive specimens have lived over 85 years, the species' lifespan in the wild has not been determined.
