“Thousands of Giant Eggs Found”: #UnderwaterVolcano Unleashes Terrifying Discovery That Has Marine Scientists in Total Shock
An unprecedented discovery off the coast of Vancouver Island has unveiled thousands of giant eggs nestled within an active underwater volcano, offering new insights into the mysterious life cycles of #DeepSeaCreatures and the critical role volcanic habitats play in #MarineBiodiversity.
Gabriel Cruz June 29, 2025
Excerpt: "The active underwater volcano near Vancouver Island serves as a natural laboratory for studying the complexities of marine ecosystems. The #geothermal warmth supports a unique# biodiversity, offering scientists a rare opportunity to explore how these environments affect marine life development. The discovery of giant eggs in this volcanic setting suggests that underwater volcanic activity may have a more significant impact on marine life cycles than previously thought.
"A follow-up expedition in 2023 witnessed a #PacificWhiteSkate laying an egg at the site, providing valuable insights into the reproductive behaviors of this mysterious species. The presence of multiple species utilizing the volcano as a nursery underscores the broader ecological significance of these habitats. This finding emphasizes the need for ongoing research to better understand the intricate dynamics of ocean ecosystems and their inhabitants."

@CivicCoding wenn KI GUTES tut für #Naturschutz, #Menschenrechte, #Gemeinwohl, dann verdient sie jede Aufmerksamkeit, jeden Fördertopf, jede Auszeichnung.
Warum wir gerade menschgemachten Content und Kreativität in eine Maschine füttern, die Klima kostet und die digitale Welt zur Farce macht, erschließt sich mir nicht.
Aber wenn Technik und hilft, Unrecht und Handlungsbedarf sichtbar zu machen, ist es die Pixel wert.

The Clarion Clipperton Zone (CCZ) of the Eastern Pacific is a vast area of deep ocean and seamounts. A Canadian firm – The Metals Company –plans to explore parts of the CCZ for polymetallic nodules.
Research raises concern about the impact on marine life, including whales and dolphins.

#Goedemorgen. Pinksterzondag maar ook #WorldOceansDay.
Wereldwijd staan ze onder druk.
Met als nieuwe bedreiging de onverzadigde honger van de potverteerders met hun #DeepSeaMining plannen.
Meer nog dan de natuur op land is die in onze oceanen van (ook ons) levensbelang.
