🚨 Today is #WorldFishMigrationDay, but wild fish aren’t celebrating. Data collected by @wildfishcons shows that over 70,000 barriers, from weirs to dams, are slicing our UK rivers into fragments.

Today is #WorldFishMigrationDay! Every year, millions of fish (salmon, steelhead, herring, sturgeon, and more) migrate to their native habitats to reproduce. Some swim 1,000s of miles, relying on a network of healthy habitat to reach their destinations. fisheries.noaa.gov/feature-s…

The @ICES advice for #European_eel for 2025 is out: zero catches for all life stages, all uses and in all habitats. Other anthropogenic mortalities reduced to zero and habitats restored. Most countries with eel in their waters have a very long way to go. doi.org/10.17895/ices.advice…
