Other articles read by Craig include those from the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies (UTas) on observed declines in the King Penguin population on Macquarie Island, and on a new $2 million collaboration project created to achieve a better understanding of the threats and management options needed to protect and restore the marine life of the Great Southern Reef. And an article from the ABC News (Australia) on how scientists are assessing the extent of large seagrass meadows in the Bahamas with the aid of Tiger Sharks.
