There are a few clams we call the giant, but the Tridacna Gigas is king of them all. It is likely the most important animal in the history of the Pacific, and unfortunately, in much of its historical habitat it happens to be functionally extinct. But here in Kosrae island Martin Selch and his team at the Kosrae National Aquatic Center are aiming to save it. And that's not an idle boast. After a successful spawning in 2020, just this month they've begun reintroduction of the Gigas to the Kosraean reef. The exact first steps towards rewilding back from extinction.
