referred to as the littoral zone,

a wider region.

harm on estuary. It destroys the

At the Beach
 Keeping more fish alive is vital to
everyone. Practice fishing
respectfully.
 Respect life on rocks. If you turn
over rocks at the beach,
remember to put them back as
how you found them so that
animals that live on top, like
barnacles, stay on top and those
and those live on the bottom, stay
on the bottom.
 When you leave the beach or
park, be sure to bring enough
bags to take all your trash with
you.

In your community
 Share your knowledge about
the importance of estuaries. Share
what you know about protecting
them with your families, students,
community leaders and others.
 You need to take action! You
can organize a stream or beach
clean-up by encouraging your
local newspaper to write a story or
ask expert to speak at your
community organization or local
school.

How Intertidal Species are


Protected
 Protect diversities in intertidal
community.
 Provide a source of water
supply for breeding stock so that
useful areas nearby can be
sustained.
 Harvesting of intertidal species
should be regulated and
undertaken at sustainable levels.
