  • Located 13,000 kilometres from the French mainland, in the middle of the Indian Ocean, the Kerguelen archipelago is home to a maritime nature reserve that has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 2019. On land, thousands of elephant seals spend their days basking in the sun. The seabed, which has remained untouched, is teeming with rare fish. Hundreds, perhaps even thousands of organisms, have yet to be logged. FRANCE 24 takes you to discover this unique ecosystem.

    questions.................... I heard that the island`s food is mostly imported canned or frozen>> why don`t they have hydroponic produce farmed? ............. how do they handle / deal with their sewage? {if the tundra is frozen, it must be difficult to have outhouses with holes in the ground for waste; and they wouldn`t want to harm the wildlife by dumping their waste into the ocean}

    Great that the French sciencetists doing important research! Its crazy to think about that we live in a world where we still have not discovered or know everything on the planet we live on,but yet we claim to know about a ultimate god and all that,but we obviously dont know everything yet,be humble and accept that we dont know thats the way to go ! Extreme religious people who are agressive are a obstacle for further research about reality. We truly dont know whats out there and around us in total so we should appreciate reality as a great mystery and thats all
