Coral reefs are also living museums and reflect thousands of years of history.
Many U.S. coral reefs were alive and thriving centuries before the European
colonization of the nearby shores. Some reefs are even older than our old-growth
redwood forests. They are an integral part of many cultures and our natural
heritage. In fact, Coral reefs are some of the oldest and most diverse ecosystems
on the planet.
