Just got an amazing opportunity to interview Women in Ocean Science, Minorities in Shark Sciences (MISS) and Love The Oceans today talking about shark/ray research, the challenge elasmobranchs face today & women in ocean science. Keep an eye on The Ray Project for the interviews & thanks girls for your time!

Next up is MA MacNeil , discussing the shark meat trade. Aaron notes that for many years we’ve been talking almost exclusively about the shark fin trade. #SharksInt2022

Great presentation from Diana Pazmiño on how BRUVs & eDNA can be used in combination to monitor elasmobranchs in Galapagos Marine Protected Areas
