This exciting new event will be the first of a series of public events that will focus on the importance of the various eco-systems in our oceans, with an emphasis on the protection and preservation of our Great Sharks!  Sharks have been given a 'bad rap' as the bullies of the oceans. But at this event, we will teach about the OTHER side of sharks and their crucial role in their eco-systems.
