#SharkSunday 🦈 Our Gavin Naylor and @FSUMarineLab's Dean Grubbs offer students a unique opportunity – a sharks field course.
Welcome to Shark Class, a photo journey: A previous class waded into immersive field and research experiences with sharks & rays:

Loving @CRCPressVet author Jeff Carrier @SharkDoctor on Beyond Jaws podcast, talking about writing shark textbooks - including 'Biology of Sharks and their Relatives' which just came out in an epic third edition! @SpeakUpforBluespeakupforblue.com/show/beyo…
The 2022 Carrier Best Poster Award at the annual AES meeting in Spokane was awarded to Rachel Aitchison for her terrific study of guitarfishes. Stellar work and am proud to see her as our award winner! @lostsharksguy@ElasmoSociety
Very pleased to be able to present a copy of "Biology of Sharks and Their Relatives" to Grace Castleberry for her Gruber Award-winning talk at AES meetings in Spokane. Fantastic talk and a terrific scholar! @GCasselberry@CRCPress@SharkColin@MikeHeithaus@ProfSharkBrain
"Biology of #Sharks and Their Relatives: Third Edition." I hope researchers all across the world benefit from the content amassed by a great team of scientists.
