What are some of the threats to the heath of the reef?
i think you mean health of the reef and some of the threats is that boats go across and over the reef and sometimes the propellers hit and destroy the coral.some people also use dynamite to blow up coral to scare fish into going into their net and the dynamite will damage quite a large amount of coral.scuba divers are probably the most major threat as they think that taking only one coral wont do any damage at all however, lots of people think this so lots of people unfortunately take alot of coral which builds up into being a huge damageyou can also have oil spills but this doesn't happen very often. Though when this does happen it can be very damaging as it kills almost all the wildlife in the area and blocks of the sun so the coral cant feed and therefore die.these are just some of the threats to the corals and i am sure that there are more.
