Marine Life census

Postby Silver_Surfer1 » Mon Oct 4, '10, 9:57 pm

Can you even imagine trying to take a census of marine life in the oceans, etc.?

As difficult as it is for humans to be counted in a census, it would seem impossible for all marine life to be counted or found out about.

A new study has attempted to try and answer some issues surrounding marine life, etc. And they have come up with some very interesting information.

Heh, funny you should mention this because a TV programme on this very subject was on just now. Like literally just right now. Quite interesting stuff and certainly one heck of a task. Though I only half watched it because I was trying to ink my drawing at the same time.
