Coral jewelryCoral jewelry Almost all collectors reporting on the color of the animal as opposed to the color of the mantle, state it to be "pink" or "pinkish-grey." The food of the Golden Cowry, as established by Dr. E. Alison Kay, University of Philippines, who examined the stomach contents of a specimen sent to her from the Philippines, is a form of algae. Coral jewelryCoral jewelry Almost all live shells collected have been found in 6 to 35 feet of water; on the seaward side of a barrier or fringing reef; in eaves or deep cracks in live coral formations. Their preference seems to be the windward side of the reefs. Golden Cowry range is from about 17 degrees S. latitude (Raiatea and Tahaa Islands in the Society Group) to about 14 degrees N. latitude (Guam) and from the Marquesas Islands westward to the Philippines at about 120 degrees E. longitude. However, the center of the population of this shell seems to be the Solomon Islands with some abundance also reported from the Philippines and from Nadroga Reef in Fiji.
