Marine Conservation and Adventure Expeditions with Angela Smith and Shark Team One (in Person Speaker)

Angela Smith, founder of the endangered species conservation and citizen science expedition organization Shark Team One will speak about working with large marine animals and the conservation of endangered species worldwide.

Angela will talk about new projects such as her work to help build a marine protected area in the remote Weddell Sea, Antarctica and what it’s like to snorkel in Antarctica with curious seals and rafts of penguins. You will also see behind the scenes on Shark Team One film productions and research trips in The Bahamas, Mexico and Dominica as you learn about Shark Team One’s endangered species work with whale sharks, tiger sharks and sperm whale family groups. Angela will be discussing upcoming projects in the Canadian and Norwegian Arctic where she will be documenting marine mammal migrations through the ice floes and studying narwhal, bowhead whales and the “carousel feeding” orcas of Northern Norway.
