Catching a wave… a pressure wave that is! Our research team captured this image of a #dolphin #bowriding in the pressure wave that was created as this large tanker headed out from #PortManatee in #TampaBay. #fromthefield #animalbehavior

Two great new #sharkscience papers out today. One on Indonesian shark and ray fisheries and trade by @dhika_fishery and collaborators (sciencedirect.com/science/ar…) The other on Caribbean reef shark movements by @squatinaivalina and collaborators (royalsocietypublishing.org/d…)
Excited to share our paper using an eco-evolutionary movement strategy framework & integrated tracking data @itag_science to compare movement traits across 23 fish species affecting #MPA effectiveness & vulnerability to #climatechange doi.org/10.1111/faf.12589

IMPORTANT PSA: I have just realised that, from eye level, rays look like cowboy hats. That's it. That's the tweet. Happy #FlatSharkFriday, y'all 🤠

Did you know that #rays have teeth? Despite not having bones (their skeleton is made of cartilage), their interlocking tooth plates -supported by layers of calcified cartilage in their jaws -can crush mollusk shells. Happy #FlatSharkFriday! @farasG @TheSharkDaymond @wildnetorg
