Many definitions of wildlife "#provisioning" are floating around. We are proposing new terms for marine wildlife tourism and need help to test them out! What are your favourite & lesser known wildlife #tourism sites that use an attractant (can be any kind of attractant)?

For today’s #WrasseWednesday, here’s a large and curious male blue groper that I met in the cabbage tree bay marine reserve. Starting out life as female, as most wrasses, this individual changed sex to male and colour from brown to blue as an adult. 🐟 – at Sydney, New South Wales

Great to talk to @doctormcdougall yesterday. If you didn't manage to tune in, here's the link: abc.net.au/radio/illawarra/p… #Antarctic adventures begin around 1:18 (one hour, 18 minutes in) Thanks so much ABC!
A bit of self-isolating inspo... @alisonhaynes1 just got back from Antarctica studying moss, as a way to understand climate change. Alison is gonna be on the show today!
