The Recovering Grouper
This is one of the honorable mentions of the Water category, taken by Tom Shlesinger. It features an Atlantic goliath grouper surrounded by other fish. These gloriously large animals were once on the brink of extinction, but actions taken to ban their fishing in the Southeastern U.S. in the early 1990s have slowly increased their populations. There remains much debate over a pending decision meant to open up limited fishing of these groupers in the area, however.
