According to Ken A. Preibe, “The advanced art of stop-motion animation” (2011), stop-motion animation is in the hands of the people.As a craft, the act of animating in stop-motion requires a person toliterally place a puppet in their hands and bring it to life, frame by frame.

According to (Endangered Species International [ESI],2011) Dynamite fishing (homemade bomb) is set off under water to kill fish for easy collection. Dynamite fishing has contributed to massive destruction of Southeast Asian coral reefs over the past 20 years. Large blasted areas are very slow to recover because corals have difficulty establishing on loose or sandy substrate. In southern Philippines, between Malaysia (Borneo) and Philippines (Palawan) illegal dynamite fishing is still a common practice.
The area between Borneo and Palawan Island are the target of ESI where the dynamite fishing is common. The ESI president observed during his field in 2008
“Finding dynamited fish in local markets is unfortunately quite common.”
As stated in endangeredspeciesinternational.org (2011).
Overall, the regulatory situation in the Philippines is certainly bad, but there are rays of hope. For starters, the collection and export of corals is banned in the Philippines. To manage aquarium fishing operations certain regions/communities/cooperatives have taken matters into their own hands and have organized around some level of protection. However, free access laws that allow outsiders, and their destructive practices access to local waters continually threaten the efficacy of these arrangements.

In the Philippines, the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) now require local communities to establish and enforce local fishery management plans (“Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Management Councils, [FARM Cs]”). With this legal mechanism in place it is now possible for communities to protect their reef resources and establish proper

    Yadfon is a small organisation in Thailand formed to help fishing communities. Yadfon has worked with villagers in Chao Mai on environmental issues and securing their future livelihoods. Chao Mai faced two problems; mangroves were being destroyed to produce charcoal, which affected the supply of seafood. Yadfon created an 80 hectare community managed mangrove forest and did not allow shrimp farms within its boundaries. The second problem was the destruction of sea grass by large fishing boats and drag nets. Sea grass is important as a nursery and habitat for commercially important species of fish and prawns. To protect the sea grass, a publicity campaign was launched among the fishing communities, which led to a reduced destruction by boats. With Yadfon’s aid this community has been able to develop whilst managing and protecting biodiversity.…

    Over time, reef management strategies have been introduced to help with the preservation and conservation of the reef, these strategies include traditional and contemporary management. Traditional management was when the Aboriginal people had complete control over the land, the indigenous people’s management included great admiration for the land, treating it with respect and using only justifiable amounts of food and materials. This was a sustainable and successful management strategy used to conserve and preserve the GBR. Contemporary management included reef exploitation, un-sustainable usage of materials, disregard for pollution and un-policed fishing which led the GBR to be at risk (GENETIC DIVERSITY, UTILITY VALUE, INTRINSIC VALUE AND HERITAGE VALUE AS ALL REASONS FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE GBR)…

This bass set the record in America for bass fishing and has stood for almost fifty years. The official measurements were taken in Helena, Georgia.Bass fishing has sense evolved from what George Perry was used to and is now aided by many newer inventions such as artificial lures and advanced fishing reels. None of these fishing, but were adapted by the fishermen themselves. Bass fishing became more widespread as more and more rivers were dammed for hydroelectricity purposes. As these dams polluted the water they killed most of the river’s trout and salmon. Bass were then imported to replace the trout and to help sustain the ecosystems around these dams. This was an excellent opportunity for fishermen, and was taken full advantage of.…

The Great Barrier Reef is the largest group of coral in the world with more than 2,900 separate reef spanning or 1,600 miles. The Great Barrier Reef is known as the largest living organism in the world. The barrier reef includes coral polyps, sponge beds, mangrove forests, and sea grass. The balanced eco system of the Great Barrier Reef is one that is very sensitive to even slightest human effect. Human action has not only affected the corals, but also the surrounding creatures that share these systems.

    As they have been largely affected by recent developments in climate change and pollution, it is crucial that we stabilize the loss of reefs; if not, we will undoubtedly be negatively impacted. In the event that we lose considerably more reefs, we will also lose a large part of the tourism industry. When you think of tourism, beaches most likely come to mind. Whether it be the pristine waters of the Caribbean, or the rougher waves of the Australian coasts, coral reefs are a popular attraction. Aside from tourism, coral reefs supply, many people with food, as they provide varying species of fish with a food source and shelter. If coral reefs disappear, so do the fish they support with food and shelter, which will add to the world’s existing food challenges. Finally, coral reefs are noted for their biodiversity, which means the undiscovered life living there could possibly a possess cure for cancer or other serious…

    In efforts to bring awareness to the continued preservation of this area, it is imperative to advocate for the threatened species of this region by bringing continued awareness to preserving this natural ecosystem. The magnificent Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System is the world’s largest barrier reef in the northern hemisphere on the coastal regions of Belize. It is comprised of coastal lagoons, mangrove forests, hundreds of sand cays, offshore atolls and estuaries ("UNESCO World Heritage Centre ", 2012). The Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System exemplifies the evolutionary antiquity of reef development and plays a significant role in the establishment of habitats of threatened species. Together individuals can continue to bring awareness to the environmental concerns of this region and unite in efforts to bring funding to aid in the preservation for the future generations of plant and animal species.…

    As a single measure, education and educational campaigns to sensitize and raise public awareness on the importance of the reefs can be the most comprehensive method of preservation. This measure would require a good deal of government intervention since it may be a costly and large scale effort. The benefit though is that, through education all levels of the population can be made aware of both the threats to the reefs as well as what needs to be done to ensure longevity of these. What is particularly good about an education campaign is the fact that within organized institutions such as schools it need not be a lesson in itself. Instead the lessons can be linked to national identity issues, social studies and geography. In effect then, sensitizing about the reefs can become a curriculum point that would last a life time in the student while building national identity and inculcating loyalty and patriotism.…
