Breeding a Baby Crab Army | Changing Planet: Coral Special | BBC Earth Science

Ғылым және технология

As sea urchin populations decline, the algae they would consume is spreading, smothering corals and causing disease. Innovative researchers are on a mission to breed colossal numbers of another grazing animal, to step up and take over the urchins’ role.

    And in 10 years they’ll be breeding something to control the crabs. Ask our friends in Australia.

    Iean, they did say it was native to Florida, so it's not like in Australia at all, where they introduced a bunch of invasive species

    Q1. Why can't they repopulate Sea Urchins? Q2. Won't this cause imbalance in the Food Chain?

    I think because maybe these crabs can be eaten or something? So it fulfills two needs

    Are they edible? There might be a market for human consumption

    See in my beliefs we don’t eat from ocean or rivers only fish with scales only and shrimps All other living things Small or large like weals and dolphins not permitted to consume for human Same with on ground We allowed only chickens sheep’s cows and goats For wild there are only few only on time So the life balance works if all human stop eating everything I mean everything
