Every winter, more than 100,000 giant Australian cuttlefish can be found mating along the rocky coastline of Point Lowly, northeast of Whyalla, South Australia. Adult giant cuttlefish typically congregate in small groups to mate. In July, significantly reduced cuttlefish numbers were confirmed by the South Australian government, which regularly surveys the aggregation.While cuttlefish numbers fell to a record low in 2013, there were still thousands of animals, as compared with 2026. While the timing of the cuttlefish aggregation can vary each year slightly, by late June the animals should be well and truly aggregating. As such, the giant cuttlefish could bounce back if conditions are good, food is abundant and there are not too many predators lurking around.
