Wednesdays, July 22-August 5, 8pm on WKAR-TV | The three-part LIFE ON THE REEF presents a unique and fresh angle on Australia’s greatest natural icon.

The Great Barrier Reef is one of the richest and most complex natural ecosystems on earth -- home to a stunning array of animals, from microscopic plankton to 100-ton whales. From the coral cays of the outer reef to the Islands of the Torres Strait, the reef's human residents work to find that critical balance between our needs and those of an ever-diminishing natural world. The three-part LIFE ON THE REEF presents a unique and fresh angle on Australia’s greatest natural icon, seen through the eyes of those who live, work and play in this natural wonderland.
