Travel the World of Postage Stamps - World Fair "EXPO-75", Okinawa - European Eel (Anguilla anguilla) - Soviet Union 1975 - Michel's USSR 4378 - my hobby.

Greetings friends!

You know, when evolutionists claim that one day, fish came out on land and they liked it so much, lol, remember a fish called an eel, which periodically makes long migrations over land. crawling from one reservoir to another reservoir.

Not only does the eel do something similar, there are other fish, for example, the snakehead fish and other lungfish. They are capable of being without water for a long time, crawling like snakes over land in search of new reservoirs and, during such migrations, legs do not grow at the bottom.

From generation to generation, these fish leave the water and return to it!

As for eel, sushi lovers know this ingredient well, as is the pickled eel, which is a part of Japanese cuisine, and the cuisine of other nations, where this wonderful fish lives.

A postage stamp with an image of an eel was supposed to be recognized by the Japanese public and Japanese philatelists in the opinion of the USSR government, such a conclusion can be made. looking at a postage stamp European Eel (Anguilla anguilla) from a series of postage stamps World Fair "EXPO-75", Okinawa, issued in the USSR in 1975.
