A new analysis of centuries of documents reports that wild oysters used to be incredibly plentiful in Europe, and that centuries of harvesting and the emergence of powerful dredging equipment destroyed vast, vast areas of oysters. About 1.7 million hectares of seafloor around Europe were once covered in abundant quantities of oysters, based on an analysis of 1,600 records from 15 countries. Today they live in sparse clumps, rarely occurring at a rate of one per square meter.
