After the wall was formed living organisms started to form like coral, algae, anemones, sponges, fish, worms, starfish, turtles, molluscs, snakes, crustaceans and other extraordinary creatures. The first evidence of Europeans sighting the Great Barrier Reef was French on 6 June 1768.But they did not sail the whole of the barrier reef and they missed Australia. The first person to actually sailed along the whole of the barrier reef is James cook.
