The topic of killing them to help reefs is controversial. Image made off Malapascua, Philippines.

  • DFO (Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada) scientist Robert Gregory takes his team to a site known to house juvenile Atlantic cod in Newfoundland, Canada. The cod fishery was one of the world's largest until a crash in the early 90's which left 40,000 fisherman out of work overnight. The fishery has still not recovered, but researchers are working to try to bring their populations back up.

  • A lionfish is fed to a shark. It was once thought that you could teach predators like this Caribbean reef shark to eat lionfish, but there is no evidence any efforts have been working. Sharks tend to hunt weak or dying animals and actually help fish populations beneath them thrive.

  • A young man, under direction from his father, in Nassau, Bahamas tosses conch into an old shopping cart. The animal will be removed from his or her shell to be made into conch salad or other food for human consumption. The shell will either be discarded or sold as an ornament.
