## Resource

A beloved clownfish nicknamed “Island Nemo” vanished just two weeks after his location was publicly shared via iNaturalist, sparking concern over illegal poaching on the Great Barrier Reef. Once a local celebrity surviving cyclones and heatwaves, his disappearance underscores how even small creatures hold deep symbolic value—and how citizen science apps, while vital for research, can unintentionally expose vulnerable species to poachers. This case highlights the hidden threats to reef ecosystems beyond commercial fishing, especially for corals, and the urgent need for better protections.
