Species recovery plans for a wider range of species sound really interesting. Wonderful to have rare species reintroduced We can all act to help some of our more common species that are now under threat. #NaturalEngland #SpeciesRecovery #CitizenScience #NatureGuardians

#SpeciesRecovery #Climate World’s largest key-species oyster reef restoration!
* Build a new substrate, either from stone or shell, to which oysters born in the bay can naturally attach, seed juveniles to attach
* 10,000 gallon feeding tanks for larvae oysters
* Seed onto existing degraded reefs
