Did you know that Coral reefs are home to more kinds of life than any other marine environment, rivalling even the tropical rainforests on land. In fact, coral reefs reached their current level of biodiversity fifty million years ago and have been on the planet for over 400 million years.
Coral Reefs are the oldest, most complex ecosystems on earth. They are home to more kinds of life than any other ocean environment. They have existed for over 200million of years. These majestic underwater worlds are home to some of the world’s most colorful and diverse life forms including fish, hard and soft corals, sponges, jellyfish, anemones, snails, rays, crabs, moray eels, lobsters, sea turtles, dolphins, and seabirds. However, most coral reefs are now threatened with extinction due to a combination of impacts that are particular to each reef, depending upon the use and upland activities affecting it. Please save the reefs!!
