Don’t miss a great conversation with awesome guests! We’ll be talking about sharks in this Shark Awareness Day.
Join us at youtube.com/live/R221FsGuyFU…
9 PM Chilean time.
Thanks for sharing! We have seen a bunch of notes in other media but it looks like our article wasn’t read before journalist wrote those notes… there’s not bad publicity people say… however we recommend to find the original source. This wasn’t a #lostshark!

There aren't a lot of fish genera out there that begin with the letter F, so this species was new to me! Fenestraja sinusmexicanus, the Gulf of Mexico pygmy skate, can grow to be ~35 cm long which makes it a bit smaller than most skates. #FishABC

It's #FishABC day E and #FlatSharkFriday which means the ornate sleeper ray, Electrolux addisoni, is up! This species was first spotted in 1984, but it wasn't described until 2007 because it proved quite difficult to catch!

The mega-stars of the shark world, such as the great white, receive attention. Unfortunately, that means that other shark species are often forgotten in conservation efforts.
