Protect habitat to halt dwindling numbers

PETALING JAYA: As Malaysia's fish populations plummet, experts warn that some of the most familiar species could face local extinction within decades, but that timely action could still reverse the trend.

#FoodChains in #Caribbean #coralreefs are getting shorter
#Fish on modern #coral reefs may face more competition for resources than 7,000 years ago.
Habitat loss and #overfishing push species to compete for fewer resources and repositioned some fish within ecosystem’s #foodchain. Findings suggest fish could be less able to adapt if food sources suddenly become scarce, perhaps making reefs even more vulnerable in an already changing environment.

Food chains in Caribbean coral reefs are getting shorter

Shorter food chains could mean reefs are less able to weather changes in food availability, threatening an already vulnerable ecosystem.
