I can finally join the “cool club” of published #shark and #ray researchers (although I can claim very little credit but a fun journey nonetheless)!
Out today in @MEPS_IR evidence and description of a #nursery #habitat for the recently reclassified Atlantic chupare #stingray from the #Bahamas. We describe long term site fidelity in juveniles over multiple years from multiple creeks
