A dramatic decline in cuttlefish mating activity has been reported, with official figures showing a 97% drop in participation compared to last year. Conservationists are raising concerns over the species' survival as only a small fraction of the usual population was observed engaging in breeding behavior. The sharp decrease follows a pattern of declining numbers, signaling potential ecological disruption in marine ecosystems. Experts are calling for urgent investigation into the underlying causes behind this alarming trend.
According to official figures only 1,811 cuttlefish turned up to mate this year, down 97% on last year.
