Cambodia 's largest freshwater lake, the Tonle Sap lake, is running out of fish.
Dams upstream on the Mekong River that sustains the lake, and deforestation in the region have changed everything.
There aren't enough fish and living by the lake has become dangerous as storms intensify due to global warming.
Eels are notoriously difficult and expensive to raise and are susceptible to diseases.
The promised growth can’t come soon enough for Cambodians living in fishing communities around the lake.
Fishing is the only form of subsistence for many, but signs of decay are evident.
Families speak of giant fish that are now rarely seen.
Illegal fishing has increased and some families have already given up fishing.
