Melvin Mosley+FollowLionfish Are Taking Over the Med!Did you know lionfish are basically throwing a wild breeding party in the Mediterranean? Thanks to warmer waters, these spiky invaders are outcompeting local fish, spawning for most of the year while native species get just a few months. Scientists are worried this could wreck local fisheries and biodiversity. Some folks are fighting back by eating them (lionfish tacos, anyone?), but experts say we need bigger solutions. Would you try lionfish if it helped the ocean? #Science #LionfishInvasion #Mediterranean30Share
Michael Flores+FollowSharks for Sale?! Mediterranean CrisisIllegal fishing is pushing great white sharks in the Mediterranean to the brink of extinction. Researchers found over 40 great whites killed this year alone, with some ending up for sale in North African fish markets—even though it’s totally illegal. The team tried to tag a shark for research but couldn’t even find one. The scariest part? If we don’t act fast, these iconic predators could vanish from the Med for good. Wild, right? #Science #GreatWhiteShark #Mediterranean20Share
