Hawai'i’s Reefs Are in Serious Trouble

Did you know overfishing in Hawai'i is causing a wild sea urchin takeover? With too few carnivorous and herbivorous fish left, urchins are munching away at coral reefs faster than they can recover. Researchers say if nothing changes, these reefs could erode beyond saving—bad news for marine life and even the islands themselves! Time for some serious fish management before it’s too late. Would you support paying people to hunt invasive species? #HawaiiReefs #Overfishing #MarineLife #Science
