How the next generation of coral is made ๐ชธ๐
One of natureโs most spectacular annual events - a mass coral spawning event on the Great Barrier Reef, took place this weekend.
This is when around 70% of corals, across hundreds of different species, simultaneously release their gametes into the ocean.
The timing of this event relies on annual, daily, and lunar-cycle cues, so whilst we can get a pretty good idea of when we expect it to happen, we canโt entirely predict it, which makes it even more special to be able to witness a mass coral spawning event from the Reef Magic pontoon ๐.
The resulting fertilised larvae then float around at the mercy of the currents for 5-6 days before they reach the bottom of the seabed and find a suitable spot to base themselves to turn into coral polyps.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the story of how coral babies are made on the reef.
-
We had the privilege to witness this natural phenomenon with our friends from Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, Citizens of the Great Barrier Reef, Mars, Incorporated , Dawul Wuru Aboriginal Corporation , the Reef Cooperative, Cotton On Foundation, UTS Future Reefs Lab, the Yirrganydji and the Traditional Custodians of Moore Reef, the Gunggandji.

This week, Jenny Gilbert and her team of volunteers from the Turtle Rehabilitation Centre released a gorgeous flatback turtle, Tori, from our Remoora Pontoon ๐ข
These turtles get their name due to their shell or carapace looking almost flattened compared to other sea turtles.The flatback sea turtle is the only sea turtle that nests only on northern Australian beaches and they don't forage far from the northern Australian continental shelf. Out of the seven species of sea turtles, they can be classed as a true Australian Turtle!
This species of sea turtle is super rare to find when snorkelling along the beautiful Great Barrier Reef. This may be because their flattened, smooth shells and paddle-like flippers allow them to reach speeds in the water of up to 24km/h - that's super fast! ๐ฎ
Reef Magic & GBR Biology are proud supporters of Cairns Turtle Rehabilitation Centreand it was our pleasure to be part of this release and an awesome experience for our valued guests to witness! ๐
