Juvenile Cod Hide in Seagrass

Juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) hiding in eelgrass (Zostera marina) off Newfoundland Canada. This species of fish were once one of the most caught and eaten fish in the world. In 1992 the fishery collapsed and 37,000 people lost their jobs overnight. Juvenile cod and many other heavily fished species use seagrass as a nursery. The healthier the seagrass is, the better fisheries will likely be.
