https://animalvised.com/
Description:
🦪🌊 Oysters do more than just provide food—they’re vital ecosystem builders. By forming reefs, oysters create habitats that support fish, crabs, and countless marine species. They naturally filter water, improve clarity, and enhance seagrass growth, boosting coastal biodiversity. Discover how oysters play a key role in maintaining healthy oceans, protecting shorelines, and sustaining marine life. 🌍💧

00:00Oysters, small, unassuming shellfish, play one of the biggest roles in maintaining healthy coastal ecosystems.
00:07These natural reef builders create complex structures that become safe havens for marine life.
00:12Fish, crabs, and shrimp all thrive in the nooks and crannies of oyster beds.
00:16Oysters are also nature's water filters.
00:19A single oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water a day, removing excess nutrients and improving clarity,
00:25helping seagrass and other plants grow.
00:27By stabilizing shorelines, oyster reefs reduce erosion and protect coastal communities from storm surges,
00:34adding yet another layer of biodiversity protection.
00:37Oysters may be small, but their impact is enormous.
00:40Protecting and restoring them means protecting the incredible biodiversity of our oceans.
00:45Oysters, nature's engineers of biodiversity.
