This episode guides listeners on the migration path of the mysterious short-finned eel from freshwater to sea. Beginning inland at the urban Merri Merri Creek, artist and educator, Sarita Gálvez, offers a lesson on acknowledgment and water care. Thousands of miles north, indigenous scholar, Dr. C.F. Black narrates her speculative mystery “The Bringers of the Viral Red Dust” and Ensayos enacts a somatic exercise in “Mangrove Tuning” at the edge of a coastal wetland.  Returning to the eel’s breeding ground in the Coral Sea, marine biologist, Dr. Lynne Van Herwerden, offers a sorrowful interview about a tiny crustacean and microplastics. The episode ends with a song about the imperiled copepod. Catalina Jaramillo is our host.
