A Coral Reef is made up of tiny animals.A Coral reef is a tiny animal.They are mostly found in the South Pacific.They are helpful to us because they protect other animals,violent seas,they help aids patients,to help them live longer.They are beneficial to us because they feed us,lots of people rely on fish.Coral Reefs are in danger.What's happening to them is Global Warming is the major cause,fish protect the Coral reef,so if the fish die,the Coral Reef dies.For us to help save the Coral Reefs we can stop fishing,well not stop,but like do less fishing and more helping.Because were taking the fish away from the Coral Reefs,and if we keep doing that more and more are going to be dying.We had so many,now we have so little.We need them to protect us,most people rely on fish and Coral Reefs.Some people don't really care about the Coral Reefs,but the people need to start caring,because Coral Reefs protect us humans.That's why it's important to care!.



WAYS WE CAN HELP THE CORAL REEFS:
One way we can help Coral Reefs is to do less fishing,we don't have to stop,we just have to do a little bit less.

We can tell some divers to go find out what's happening to all the Coral Reefs and tell the scientist to find clues.

Tell more and more people to help by doing whatever they can to help.

Ask people if they know any ways we can help the Coral Reefs.

Talk to older people and see if they know anything about Coral Reefs.

Ask scientist if they know anything,since they know more about animals,and science.
