These deep-sea bubblegum corals create a whimsical wonderland teeming with life 🪸✨
Deep-sea bubblegum corals create a whimsical wonderland
Sometimes growing as tall as a horse, the bubblegum coral (Paragorgia arborea) fans knobby branches into the currents. Paragorgia’s feathery polyps feast on plankton and other organic matter.

Kudos to @Walmart for committing to source tuna more sustainably by 2027. It's using its purchasing power to help reduce bycatch, #IUUfishing, and lost gear. @MontereyAq @SeafoodWatch knows it takes all of us to drive positive change. #SustainableSeafood corporate.walmart.com/newsro…
