本文结合政治生态学与绿色犯罪学，探讨欧洲鳗鱼的濒危问题。使用基于危害的方法，我们的研究表明，有组织的犯罪网络作为中央肇事者的非法野生动物贸易（IWT）和IWT本身的主要威胁鳗鱼，忽视了无数的做法，其中许多是相关的法律的企业和活动，显着促进物种的濒危。我们建议，为了更好地保护欧洲鳗鱼，我们需要更全面的保护措施，超越对渔业和IWT的关注。
This paper integrates political ecology and green criminology to examine the critical endangerment of the European eel. Using a harms-based approach, our research suggests that the identification of organised crime networks as the central perpetrators of illegal wildlife trade (IWT) and of IWT itself as the main threat to eels, neglects a myriad of practices—many of which are related to legal businesses and activities—that significantly contribute to the endangerment of the species. We suggest that, in order to better protect the European eel, we need more holistic conservation measures that go beyond a focus on fisheries and IWT.
