when was the great barrier reef declared dead
Scientists Declare The Great Barrier Reef Dead At 25 Million Years. The Great Barrier Reef is considered Australiaâs national treasure as it once was filled with marine life, amazing coral reefs, and crystal clear waters. The incredible Coral Sea Wilderness has been declared dead by scientists at 25 million years old â ending its years of struggle and illness. However, locals claim that the reports of its demise have been exaggerated and there is plenty of life left in the worldâs largest barrier reef.
