The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History, in conjunction with Dennis
Oyster Week and the Dennis Chamber of Commerce will present
<i>SHELLSHOCKED: Saving Oysters to Save Ourselves. Shellshocked</i>
follows efforts to prevent the extinction of wild oyster reefs, which
keep our oceans healthy by filtering water and engineering ecosystems.
Today, because of overfishing and pollution, wild oyster reefs have been
declared 'the most severely impacted marine habitat on Earth' and no
longer play a role in their ecosystems. Now scientists, government
officials, artists and environmentalists are fighting to bring oysters
back to the former oyster capital of the world - New York
Harbor.<br><br>
