Non‐lethal sampling for the stable isotope analysis of the critically endangered European eel Anguilla anguilla : how fin and mucus compare to dorsal muscle
Abstract Ecological studies on the critically endangered European eel Anguilla anguilla often incorporate stable isotope analysis that typically uses dorsal muscle sampled from euthanised eels. To minimise the lethal sampling of imperilled populations, fin tissue and/or epidermal mucus can provide n...
