Last October, a group of scientists went there on a research trip. Guess what they found The largest coral colony (珊瑚群) in the world!Coral reefs may look like rocks, but they are made up of tiny animals called “polyps (珊瑚虫)”.Many polyps of the same kind form a colony. Usually, a coral reef is built out of many different colonies. This newly found coral reef, however, is just one colony. It is made up of around a billion polyps of the same kind. This huge colony is about 34 meters wide, 32 meters long and 5.5 meters high. In all, it covers about the same area as five tennis courts. It is so large that it can be seen from space. It is also very old— between 300 and 500 years!Coral reefs play a big role in the ocean. They are home to many sea animals, such as shrimp, crabs and fish. Healthy coral reefs also protect shorelines (海岸线) from flooding during storms.Sadly, over the years, climate change has warmed up the world’s oceans. This has caused many coral reefs to die and turn white. But this huge coral colony is very healthy.It may be able to live in warmer waters. That is good news, as this colony may help produce new coral colonies that can live in warmer waters. The huge coral colony is also important for the Solomon Islands. It was found in the waters near one of the islands, Malaulalo. The country has protected its waters in the past! It will protect the area even more in the future.( )1.
