Biggest Group Sex Event In The World!

Great Barrier Reef explodes with life during spectacular coral spawning event

Quote:

What could be described as the world's biggest sex event — the mass coral spawning on the Great Barrier Reef — is under way. The coral spawning event saw trillions of eggs and sperm released in to the ocean in large plumes of red, yellow and orange, in order to reproduce. Marine biologist Gareth Phillips and his team captured what's been coined as "sex on the reef" off the coast of Cairns last night on the outer edge of Flynn Reef. "The conditions were magical with the water like glass and beautiful light coming from the moon," Mr Philips said. "It was absolutely amazing." "We are currently sitting out on Flynn Reef and there's big slicks of coral spawning on the surface, it's just incredible."

This is good news, because the conditions have to be exactly right to trigger the mass spawn, and it shows that the reef is healthy despite years of bleaching and ocean warming.
