The Screen Guide

Crown of Thorns Starfish have been a source of almost continual controversy on the Great Barrier Reef for the last 15 years. Major peril or cyclical phenomena? That's what scientists have been discussing, arguing and indeed procrastinating about in laboratories and at conferences all over the world.

But as one scientist puts it, 'if you put two scientists in one room you'll end up with three questions!'
