Rebroadcast from March 30, 2013. For this special edition of the "Nothing Is Real Radio Hour," host Sam Sebren is joined by co-producer Liz LoGiudice to bring you a glimpse into the complex, mysterious world of Anguilla rostrata, aka the American eel. Concern over the fate of the American eel, as well as scientific interest in its fascinating life cycle, has led to the development of the American Eel Project by the 's Hudson River Estuary Program (HREP). Teams of scientists, students, and over 200 community volunteers monitor and count glass eels at 12 HREP sample stream locations along the Hudson river from Staten Island to New Baltimore.
