reefs in danger...big danger! Part 4

Continued from the third part...

Some fish hunters dynamite the reef to stun fish and destroy their hiding places. Others shoot poison or bleach into crevices to drive the fish out. the poisons that they inject often kill many fishes instantly. Those that are captures as pets often die within weeks. Not only are they putting the reefs in danger, they are also cheating us of our money!

Catching many types of reef is against the law. If the situation of taking photos ever happens, they would either decline or mask their faces in case they get arrested or recognised.
