Sea Urchins
Like most creatures, sea urchins are vital for the survival of other living creatures surrounding them. They have many predators and due to this, if the sea urchin population decreased, the sea creatures that feed on them might begin to die out as well. A few predators that feed on sea urchins are sea otters, star fish and humans. However for there to be a healthy balance in their environment, it’s very important that the population of sea urchins do not decrease or increase all that much. Sea urchins, in large quantities, can devastate their environment, creating what biologists call an urchin barren, devoid of macroalgae and associated fauna. Not only can sea urchins eliminate seaweed and kelp, but they also can erode coral reefs where other organisms live.
At the moment sea urchins are very populous and located all over the world in many different oceans. Therefore they seem to be in no immediate danger of disappearing or becoming endangered in general. However in the past sea urchins have shown mass mortality due to an increased amount of pollution in the oceans and also due to an increased amount of fishing by humans. Hurricanes and a rise in the temperature of water have also wiped out a great amount of sea urchins. Evidently sea urchins are very susceptible to change, and with global warming, which is changing the temperature of the oceans and increasing the amount of tropical storms, they may become endangered in the future.
