New Study Highlights Key Findings on Coral Predation in the Maldives
Three years ago, a team of coral restoration experts, including Marine Biologist Matthew Walker, began a coral restoration project at Soneva Fushi in the Maldives. This joint initiative between the Soneva Foundation and Coralive aimed to regenerate the Soneva Fushi reef and improve the resilience of the marine ecosystem around the resort.
What seemed like a straightforward coral propagation effort soon faced an unexpected challenge that threatened the survival of their newly planted corals, sparking the first study of its kind in the Maldives on how predator management can positively influence coral restoration success.
