The Great Barrier Reef: A Living Treasure

INHALT

"Stretching as far as the Solomon Islands and New Caledonia, the Coral Sea is characterised by a warm and stable climate. A combination of shallow in-shore waters and outer reefs plunging to depths of 2000metres, provides an environment teeming with life. It provides a ripe hunting ground for the tiger shark. The ultimate apex predator, these ferocious creatures feed on everything from birds and snakes to turtles and even other sharks. Watch in awe as this creature uses it's serrated teeth to effortlessly saw through bone, flesh and shell. One great success story of the Barrier Reef is increasing numbers of humpback whales. Back from the brink of extinction, there are over 10,000 whales found today. Join these majestic creatures on a migration from the Antartica to give birth in the warm waters of the Barrier Reef."
