Everyone is a marine scientist who is passionate about the Ocean, marine mammals (whales, seals, dolphins, porpoises, polar bears and more), sharks and other fish, invertebrates (especially squid & octopuses because they are cool), and other marine biology things that live under the sea.

    The Lagoon - a tale of whales

    The Lagoon - a tale of whales

    Dr Scarlett Smash and Dr Craken are joined by author James Michael Dorsey who shares his latest book: The Lagoon: Encounters with the Whales of San Ignacio
    "Once a killing ground for whalers hunting a leviathan they called the “devilfish,” the San Ignacio Lagoon in Baja, Mexico is now an environmental and spiritual sanctuary―the only place in the world where animals in their natural aquatic environment routinely seek out human contact. In The Lagoon: Encounters with the Whales of San Ignacio, resident naturalist James Michael Dorsey illuminates the magic of human connection to animals, and what those bonds teach us about ourselves and our purpose on this shared planet" - Diversion Books
