The shark’s out of the bag! 🦈 We’ve been dying to tell you about the findings that came out of our recent expedition to the Cayman Island, including our history-making sighting of a Kitefin shark in Caribbean waters! Watch now to see this elusive luminous vertebrate in action.

If we want to beat climate change, we must do more to protect our threatened blue carbon ecosystems. πŸ’™βœŠ Though we aren't at #ClimateWeek, BTW is on the frontlines using science to protect BCEs and making discoveries like the largest seagrass meadow on earth down in the Bahamas.

What better way to celebrate #NationalFossilDay than with an ancient new science species? Mammoth Cave National Park is excited to announce the discovery of fossils belonging to Strigilodus tollesonae, an extinct type of petalodont (petaltoothed) shark related to modern ratfish.

No ghouls and goblins here, just some deep-sea trick-or-treaters. πŸ˜‰πŸ‘» Check out the latest shots we captured with our BRUVS. Can you identify any of these species? 🦐🦈 #deepsea #marinespecies #spookyseason #oceancontent

How can you not fall in love with the Mola mola?! β˜€οΈπŸŸ Our recent expedition was all about sampling, tagging, and getting to know this ocean giant better. In time, we'll gain critical insight into how this fish lives in the open #ocean and what their #genetics can teach us.
