Mass coral death at Ningaloo Reef

A fresh survey of eight sites along WA's Ningaloo Reef has revealed more than 60 per cent of corals have died.

Record water temperatures caused widespread bleaching last summer.

Of the 1,600 corals counted in March [last year], only 600 were still alive come late October.
