Have you ever wondered what coral reefs really looked like? Ever wondered if they looked just as pretty as the ones in the movies? If were not careful, we may not be able to see these aquatic forests ever again. Scientists and researchers have found that immense groups of reefs are being destroyed everyday by humanly actions. Such actions include over fishing, illegal fishing, scuba diving, and pollutants in the water. Even the recent discovered coral reefs are dying off just as fast as they are discovered. Thus, many reefs are becoming endangered every day and they can’t heal as fast as some people think.
Warm water coral reefs are usually found in tropical sunny areas like Hawaii, the Virgin Islands, and other warm regions. They are homes to many fish, crustacean, and other living creatures under the sea. Sadly, these beautiful forests of the sea are being destroyed e
Cold-water coral reefs are just the similar to warm water corals except for the fact that they are found in deep depths of the ocean where coral usually isn’t found. Before, people believed that coral reefs only lived in warm water areas where the sun could get to them, but recent studies show that there are reefs below where the sun cannot penetrate through. You would think that these corals wouldn’t get affected because of their location, but there are signs of them dying off too. Humans are to blame for the rapid deaths of corals around the world. Due to trawling nets, over fishing, and even scuba divers these coral reefs are becoming endangered just as fast as they are becoming discovered. Just as there was a solution to the warm water coral problem, there is a resolution to these reefs too. If we cut back on the illegal fishing and be a little more careful we could
