Abstract, Summary, etc. |
Most of the images presented in this book were taken over a period of a year and a half in an area barely stretching ten square kilometers. While the authors believe that Anilao's wealth of marine life is adequately represented here, one would have to actually visit and spend a considerable amount of time to appreciate the wonders of Anilao.<br/>The incredible variety of nudibranchs, shrimp, crabs and other exotic creatures such as ghost pipefishes, snake eels, flying gurnards and bobbit worms need to be witnessed first hand.All imagin-able variations of crinoids, soft and hard coral, sea fans surrounded by clouds of reef fishes provide an explosion of color and vitality that is breathtaking.<br/>What is truly remarkable is that this celebration of life continues despite serious threats to Anilao Marine environment. This assault on Anilao has been launched by overfishing, dynamite and cyanide uses and unregulated development.<br/>Thirty years ago, Anilao was a genuine underwater wilderness. Schooling fish, sharks and large grouper were common sights on every dive. At one reef, a resident giant grouper the size of a Volkswagen would sometimes investigate divers. Invariably, they would stare mouths agape at the enormous animal whose sheer size and barnacles on his head bore witness to his age. Divers were also treated to sightings of dolphins cavorting on the surface while beneath them, huge schools of jacks, tuna, red snapper and large black surgeonfish moved in protective circular patterns. Just within sight of these schools sharks patrolled in opportunistic anticipation.<br/>The Philippine branch of the World Wildlife Fund along with concerned divers and several resort owners are now trying to stem the tide of destruction to Anilao's marine environment. Anilao has become a favorite weekend destination for Manila's diving community· A two and a half-hour drive transports them from the hustle and pollution of the city to a fishing community whose incomes are now augmented by the numerous dive resorts that line Anilao's shores.<br/>They come to marvel at the extraordinary variety and concentration of marine life in an area no larger than ten square miles. Sightings of the larger marine animals are now rare. Today, divers look to the reef instead of open water in search of something interesting. The older ones still sometimes look hard and longingly into the deep blue in hopeful expectation.<br/>Indeed, it will take more than hope if we are to see Anilao's underwater world restored to its pristine wilderness state. Literally everyone will have to acquire an enlightened awareness of marine conser-vation to make this possible.<br/>Anilao's environmental issues are representative of practically all coastal areas in the Philippines. At the heart of it all are fundamental questions that all of us must answer: Can we coexist with the other creatures on our planet? Can we afford not to?<br/><br/> |
