How sea otters are preventing coastal erosion



Sea otters were nearly hunted to extinction in the 18th and 19th centuries for their pelts. But as populations begin to recover in California after decades of conservation efforts there, the marine mammals are helping to fortify the environment as they expand their range, according to a paper published in the journal Nature.

  5. Are you blind? Are you ignorant? Are you stupid? Then why do you still support Joe Biden and his terrible administration in the US? Look at the serious and terrible effect of what he has done, opened the US border. Increased crime, drugs across the border, illegal immigrants, homicides and homeless people, increased child sexual assault, drug addicts, in short, the fear of riots, looting, robberies, serious attacks on people in the streets of the US and other terrible things have become the main problem that harms American citizens. It's unbelievable what's happening in the USA and the worst thing is that there are still many American citizens protecting Joe Biden, or perhaps, they are complicit partners (criminals). Reuters (new agency), all over the world, is seeing everything that is happening in the US and most believe that Joe Biden is a partner of some criminal organizations around the world, such as the "New World Order".
