Scientists have warned that the Great Barrier Reef, 
meant to be one of the most strictly protected natural 
wonders of the world, is dying, and this is because of 
the western appetite for prawn cocktails, and a 
combination of other human activities, including 
tourism and oil mining. The Australian Conservation 
Foundation has said that the reef could soon be listed 
as "endangered". It is one of the world's richest 
natural sites, with more than 400 species of coral and 
1,500 fish species. Every living thing in the 140,000 -
square -rnile park is extremely sensitive to 
disturbance. The scientists' report reveals that large -
scale prawn fishing-both illegal and licensed-has in a 
few years reduced seabed animals by more than half.
