- Oysters are incredible water filters — a single oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water per day, helping to keep marine ecosystems clean.
- Not all oysters make pearls, but the ones that do create them as a defense mechanism against irritants, like a grain of sand or a parasite.
- Oysters don’t have a set shape. Their shells grow and form based on their environment, making each one unique.
- Oysters can change sex multiple times throughout their lives, often starting as males and transitioning to females as they age.
- Humans have been eating oysters for thousands of years — evidence shows they were enjoyed as far back as the Stone Age.
- Oyster beds or reefs create habitats for other marine life, making them essential to coastal biodiversity.
- Oysters can sense the tide, even when removed from the ocean. They open and close their shells in rhythm with the tides of their home waters.
- Oysters are packed with nutrients like zinc, iron, and vitamin B12, making them a superfood from the sea.
