We
might find ourselves wondering what part does coral play in the conservation of
our coral reefs?. The answer took some digging since most of us aren't really
aware of what coral does. All creatures, which form part of the underwater
community near the reefs, work together to form a balance and cycle, which can
easily maintain everyone’s well being. Corals are physically beautiful, yes
this is true, but they are also extremely delicate when it comes to human
activities, contamination and other unnatural substances. Keeping our coral in
a clean and stable state is crucial for the animals, such as the parrotfish,
that help our coral reefs to provide food, minerals, and shelter, produced by
the coral to keep animals alive. Whether we know this or not, corals also work
as barriers. Groups of attached corals maintain the rough currents, and in most
cases, dangerous animals off the shore, protecting the beautiful beaches and
coastal locations. I guess it is safe to say corals are the beautiful creations
and protectors of the meeting between land and water. These natural pieces of
mass are beneficial to all aspects of our world.
Protect
the corals for a better tomorrow!
