By now, of course, you know that people in medieval England often paid their rent in eels. But not only eels! Sometimes the eel-rents were due with other things.
In 1206, the village of Dunwich owed the Exchequer not only 5,000 eels per year, but *also* 5 gerfalcons!
Conger #eels (conger conger) are one of the largest types of eels in the world and can grow to a length of about 1.8 metres. Whilst conducting a project for my master I was able to capture in a video several conger eels, here an illustration and some pictures of them:

In about 1200, people in England paid 540,000+ eels in rent every year. That's a lot, right?
Yes. But.
Those were *just* the eels for rent. People were catching & eating LOTS more. In 1290, fishermen in the village of Ramsey caught 365,000 eels, above & beyond rent eels. 1/4

In 1397 the city of London arrested several Dutch eel merchants for unpaid debts. But that meant fewer eels! And that won't do.
So the king intervened. He ordered that the Dutch be set free to sell their eels, and also that the city never again hassle eel merchants in this way.
