This is HUGE. Thanks for making this video, the perfect blend of the scientific explanation of Keystone Spiecies, combined with a clear and sadly mostly unknown example, with a restauration project already in action. Love this. Good luck to the team with this project, and thanks for doing this series!

Sometimes I'm really alienated by how farmers insist on their right to exploiting the last remaining populations of a species when only a few yrs later their "right" will cease to be because of the extinction itself.

Better leave things as they be, or try to restore them to what they are supposed to be. Great work :D

@MossyEarth, perhaps you should look into how they are reintroducing oysters back into the rivers and coastline around New York City with the New York Oyster Project. From the videos I've seen they have been successful in their project to the point that they've secured additional support from city, state and federal governments to greatly expand into a much larger area. They've already exceeded planting 11 million juvenile oysters with a goal of over 100 million over the next few years.

Huh that's an interesting addition at the end, giving a sneak peak of future videos. Mossy Earth is doing REAL work with their projects, but that transparent approach does sometimes leave us with videos that end with projects only just getting started, which can leave the audience craving more info, so getting a glimpse of the next video to come is a good way to assuage that angst...

There's a great many comments about how great this content is, and let me say, I agree fully ! I find this format to be a great idea, and the central theme of keystone species is a truly captivating one. Now however, if I might be a little nitpicky, I'd say this : I would've loved there to he some more detail on how the keytsone species impacts the habitat, maybe with some specific examples for illustration ! (For example : water is clearer, so X plant grows better and bigger, so Y fish and Z crustaceans thrive, so A, B and C predators have a more stable source of food). Anyways, hope you guys consider the idea, and keep up the dope work

Words are important, and the fact that people talk about 'harvesting' oysters (and other wildlife) doesn't help. You cannot, logically, harvest something unless you have first grown it. The word has been deliberately taken and used out of context by the fishing industry, the whaling industry, loggers and many other exploitative businesses, to sanitise their actions. We gather oysters, we hunt fish, but we don't harvest anything unless we first plant or breed it. Misusing the word, means that people are far less likely to consider that what they are doing is in fact destructive. It would be glorious to think that we can restore the oyster beds that we have destroyed. If only more people would eat more plants and fewer animals, what a gift that would be to our struggling wildlife.

I actually find it interesting that you mentioned oysters. As I was at a nature symposium a couple of weeks ago and one of the people who presented, was giving a talk about the endangered freshwater oysters in the lower part of the state I live in. Which I hadn't even known about that we had endangered freshwater oysters. So hearing him talk about them and the different places where they looked for them (including overflow and agricultural ditches) was really interesting. Now I have yet another oyster to learn even more about :)
