Panamic Green Moray Eels free swimming at Clipperton Island

Clipperton Island, aka Île de la Passion, a French territory in the most remote part of the Pacific Ocean. The only coral island in the eastern Pacific Ocean with a completely enclosed lagoon. 

 

Clipperton Island boasts an extensive cover of Lobe and Plate coral, an abundance of moray eels, and endemic fishes. Yet even this distant, uninhabited outpost shows clear evidence of overfishing, including a large number of fishing lines and a disproportionate population of juvenile sharks.
