This is an urchin barren. Imagine diving into a once-lush kelp forest… only to find a rocky seafloor stripped bare. That’s what happens when sea urchin populations explode and devour nearly all the kelp in their path. With no kelp canopy, the ecosystem collapses... fish lose habitat, biodiversity drops, and the reef becomes a very different place. At Reef Check, we’re taking action by: 🌱 Monitoring rocky reefs to track kelp forest health. 🦀 Partnering with local groups to support urchin manage
