Saving Great Whites and Whale Sharks! NEW!

How do you put a satellite tag on a 1,500-pound great white shark or a 30-foot whale shark?  Dr. Ramón Bonfil, WCS conservation scientist and shark expert, tells all on his unforgettable encounters with the world’s mightiest fish and its harmless cousin.  Dr. Bonfil will discuss his groundbreaking attempts to save the great white, a creature of myth and legend – from guiding tagging expeditions off the coast of South Africa and New Zealand to leading the successful effort to protect great whites under international laws. Join us for an insider’s peek at these conservation efforts and help us celebrate a year dedicated to the wonders of water and the amazing creatures that inhabit marine habitats.
