Oysters Are Making a Comeback!

Chesapeake Bay oysters are having a major glow-up after years of decline! Thanks to conservation efforts and better conditions, these little filter-feeders are thriving again, cleaning up the water and supporting tons of other sea life. Maryland and Virginia are both seeing record harvests, which is huge for local jobs and the seafood biz. Wild to think oysters can filter two gallons of water an hour—nature’s own Brita! Fingers crossed this rebound keeps going strong for a cleaner, healthier bay. #Oysters #ChesapeakeBay #Conservation #Science
