Sea dispersal is a hit-or-miss method, and, after their perilous journey, the vulnerable seedlings often face dangers. Drift seeds carried by the Gulf Stream from the Caribbean to beaches of northern Europe may lose their viability in a cold climate, and those washed onto parched tropical sand may dry up or be quickly devoured by ravenous land crabs.
