 Bill Trantham, a retired marine biology professor, will present "Dangerous Marine Animals".
 
There is a lot more to dangerous marine animals than you might think from Hollwoodmovies. Sharks and barracuda are the least important things to worry about in the oceans of the world. In fact the most dangerous animal by far in the seas is man. But there are lots of little things that can kill you or cripple you for life that you probably have never even heard about and my students have encountered many of them first hand. Come and see what’s really out there that can harm you or your children on a day at the beach.
