đến nỗi, lươn cũng phê vì cocaine

Critically endangered eels hyped up on cocaine could have trouble making a 3,700-mile trip to mate and reproduce—new research warns.

And while societies have long grappled with ways to cope with the use of illicit drugs, less understood are the downstream effects these drugs might have on other species after they enter the aquatic environment through wastewater.

...European eels have complex life patterns, spending 15 to 20 years in fresh or brackish (hơi mặn, lợ) water in European waterways before crossing the Atlantic Ocean to spawn (đẻ trứng) in the Sargasso Sea just east of the Caribbean and the U.S. Eastern Seaboard. While the eels are also farmed for food, the wild population is considered critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature due to dams and other waterway changes that block their migrations (di cư), overfishing (đánh bắt quá mức), and different types of water pollution.
