I put this in Scuttlebutt, but it's as relevant here.
Has anyone else read the article in today's Times?
A few quotes
"Studland Bay in Dorset, once home to a large colony of spiny seahorses, will be safeguarded from hundreds of yachts and motorboats that moor there."
"Conservationists have been campaigning for more than a decade for Studland Bay to be protected from heavy anchors and their metal chains, which destroy seagrass inhabited by seahorses."
"The government overruled objections from boating enthusiasts and included it in the list of proposed zones."
"Neil Garrick-Maidment, director of the Seahorse Trust, welcomed the protection for Studland, where his organisation found 40 spiny seahorses in 2008 but none last month."
