YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThere are many things to love about the Dominican Republic. High on the list is their famous white sand beaches. Over 6 million tourists visit the country each year, and most of them make the trip to soak up the sun and relax in the sand. But where do these delicate grains, which make the beaches so inviting come from? Poop. Which brings us to the miraculous parrotfish, an endangered keystone species whose removal from the food chain would likely contribute to the collapse of coral reefs.
