Coral the Mermaid hearts Aquatic Acoustics!

You know how the sound of ocean waves is lulling to human ears? Well, sounds are what keep sea creatures in business and their lives on course. But human beings are making it more and more difficult for denizens of the deep to survive as our sounds drown out theirs.

Accordingly, Coral the Mermaid (a brand new drawing by yours truly) has floated by to make certain you haven't missed Living On Earth's feature on the important topic of Aquatic Acoustics.

Click to read the LOE interview text or listen to the audio, whichever you prefer! And say Hello to Coral, your siren messenger from the deep blue sea...

More Dreamyfish Art images of fish and mermaids are available for browsing in my Jude Cowell Art Shop @ Zazzle so do float on by when you can!

Salmon Aquaculture now improved!

Perhaps you heard Living On Earth today and the interview concerning Monterey Bay Aquarium's Sea Food Watch giving its first-ever seal of approval to AquaSeed Corporation of Rochester, Washington, for coming up with a better, safer way to feed farmed salmon.

Salmon is my very favorite fish-for-dinner yet I know that for years now consumers have been warned off farmed salmon because it contains high levels of contaminants. Yet often here in Georgia, farmed salmon is all that's available for purchase.

Well, I hope these innovations in fish farming 'catch' on with salmon farmers across the land!

Now I have no drawings of salmon but here's a small Bengal sergeant who wishes to salute the AquaSeed Corporation - good job!
