Students and participants join marine biologists on the water to
learn about shark science firsthand. They help set baited lines,
eagerly waiting to see which shark species they'll encounter. Once a
shark is caught, the team works quickly and safely to measure, tag,
and collect essential data while teaching about sharks' role in the
ocean ecosystem. It's a unique opportunity to contribute to actual
research and inspire the next generation of ocean advocates!
