In 2016, the Great Barrier Reef suffered unprecedented mass coral bleaching as part of the Third Global Coral Bleaching Event. An estimated 30% of the Reef died as a consequence. Lizard Island in the far northern section was particularly hard hit. This image was captured during filming for the Emmy award-winning documentary film Chasing Coral.
