The Fragile Giant: 10 Astonishing Truths About the Great Barrier Reef’s Wonders and Warnings
By Calven Hurstin
Stretching more than 2,300 kilometres along Australia’s northeast coast, the Great Barrier Reef is the largest living structure on Earth—and one of the most extraordinary ecosystems our planet has ever known. Visible from space and teeming with more species than many rainforests, the reef is a vibrant, breathing world of coral cities, swaying anemones, darting fish, and mysterious deep-sea creatures. But while its scale and splendour inspire awe, its delicate balance hangs by a thread.
In The Fragile Giant, wildlife ethologist and environmental author Calven Hurstin takes listeners on a breathtaking journey into the reef’s dazzling complexity—and its mounting vulnerability. This carefully researched book is both a celebration of life beneath the waves and a sobering look at the threats that may one day silence its beauty.
Discover the reef's 10 most astonishing truths, from the coral polyps that build its foundations to the global climate shifts that now threaten to undo millennia of growth. You’ll learn:
- Why the Great Barrier Reef is called a “living structure” and how it can be seen from outer space
- How tiny coral animals form the largest reef system on the planet
- What makes this area one of the most biodiverse marine habitats in the world
- How mass coral bleaching is reshaping the underwater landscape
- What role the reef plays in Australia’s economy and indigenous cultural identity
