“Thousands of Giant Eggs Found”: #UnderwaterVolcano Unleashes Terrifying Discovery That Has Marine Scientists in Total Shock
An unprecedented discovery off the coast of Vancouver Island has unveiled thousands of giant eggs nestled within an active underwater volcano, offering new insights into the mysterious life cycles of #DeepSeaCreatures and the critical role volcanic habitats play in #MarineBiodiversity.
Gabriel Cruz June 29, 2025
Excerpt: "The active underwater volcano near Vancouver Island serves as a natural laboratory for studying the complexities of marine ecosystems. The #geothermal warmth supports a unique# biodiversity, offering scientists a rare opportunity to explore how these environments affect marine life development. The discovery of giant eggs in this volcanic setting suggests that underwater volcanic activity may have a more significant impact on marine life cycles than previously thought.
"A follow-up expedition in 2023 witnessed a #PacificWhiteSkate laying an egg at the site, providing valuable insights into the reproductive behaviors of this mysterious species. The presence of multiple species utilizing the volcano as a nursery underscores the broader ecological significance of these habitats. This finding emphasizes the need for ongoing research to better understand the intricate dynamics of ocean ecosystems and their inhabitants."

ScienceDailyMining the deep could mute the songs of sperm whalesExploration for deep-sea minerals in the Clarion Clipperton Zone threatens to disrupt an unexpectedly rich ecosystem of whales and dolphins. New studies have detected endangered species in the area and warn that mining noise and sediment could devastate marine life that relies heavily on sound. With so little known about these habitats, experts urge immediate assessment of the risks.

"Mining the potato-sized rocks on the seafloor called “nodules” only yields four metals of any economic consequence: nickel, cobalt, copper, and manganese. Since copper and manganese are plentiful on land, deep-seafloor mining is really all about nickel and cobalt. And, unlike many have tried to claim, you cannot in fact get meaningful amounts of rare earth elements from the seafloor."
Experts alarmed over Trump’s promotion of #deepsea #mining in international waters
Critics call for an industry moratorium until more scientific data can be obtained.
On April 24, President Trump signed an #executiveorder promoting #deepseamining in the US and international waters, touting the industry’s potential to boost the country’s economic growth and national security.
Thirty-three countries are also calling for a moratorium or outright ban on deep-sea mining.
