After a month of patient waiting and observation, the volunteers from Dive for Love witnessed the staghorn coral spawning May 27. It has been the fourth time that the volunteer team had observed this remarkable phenomenon, Xinhua News reported recently.
Corals are some of the oldest marine creatures on Earth. Over 60 species of corals have been found in Daya Bay and Dapeng Bay.
The process of coral spawning is a vital ceremony for these intricate organisms, signifying the continuity of life. Typically occurring at night, different types of corals release their gametes at various times.
The staghorn coral spawning, in particular, is brief, lasting only about 10 minutes, adding to the mystique and wonder of the event.
