Cyanide fishing and its impacts on reefs

[James M. Cervino]

Dear Listers, 

Take a nice break from the RWD-vs-Parrotfish hypothesis, and watch the Discovery Channel Fri. Oct. 31, 9pm eastern standard time; the topic is cyanide fishing in the Philippines, and its damage to coral reef eco-systems.

This segment might get bumped, if a more important matter blooms. 90% sure it will air tonight. This segment was filmed in the Philippines, Isla Verde island. Dr. Goreau and myself were were working with Vaughn Pratt to bring awarness to this issue. They used Dr. T.J. Goreau film footage.

Happy Haloween!!
