Sydney Institute of Marine Science

We went to the SIMS open day on Sunday and attended a talk on wobbegong sharks by Dr Kate.
Wobbegong sharks are the most numerous species in Sydney coastal waters. They do not bite unless provoked. Every wobbegong has a unique patterning on its skin. Dr Kate gets paid to scuba dive with wobbegong sharks in Cabbage Tree Bay, Manly every day of the week. I knew I should have paid more attention in Science at High School.
