Bonaire Coral Spawning | JONATHAN BIRD'S BLUE WORLD

How does an animal like coral that lives attached to the bottom (and can't move around) create new colonies far away? Jonathan spends a week in Bonaire studying coral spawning. He learns how these animals release eggs into the water at the right time of the year to create new coral colonies. But they only do it at night, at certain times of the year. Jonathan's film expedition requires careful timing.

This is an HD re-upload of a season 3 segment from 2011.

JONATHAN BIRD'S BLUE WORLD is an Emmy Award-winning underwater science/adventure series featuring underwater cinematographer/naturalist Jonathan Bird.
