Pwason èvivò ak urchins yo se jwè kritik nan ekosistèm koray Reef jan yo kontwole macroalg ki ka fè konpetisyon ak e toufe koleksyon Coral-bilding koray oswa nouvo rekrite koray. Pwoteje èbivò yo se yon estrateji jesyon kle pou pwoteje resif koray yo epi ede yo vin pi rezistan pou chanjman nan klima. Pwoteje èbivò yo atravè règleman lapèch oswa MPAs se yon teknik restorasyon pasif ki vize pou restore pwosesis ekolojik ki favorize resif koray ki domine.

Herbivorous fish and urchins are critical players in coral reef ecosystems as they control macroalgae that can compete with and smother reef-building coral colonies or new coral recruits. Protecting herbivores is a key management strategy for protecting coral reefs and helping them be more resilient to climate change. Protecting herbivores through fishing regulations or MPAs is a passive restoration technique aimed at restoring ecological processes that favor coral-dominated reefs.
