Biology, migration, and behavior of a true La Jolla local.
By Justin Pirigyi
On day 10 of Oceans class, we started off the day meeting with one of the very few Leopard Shark experts, Dr. Andy Nosal.
We drove to his lab and looked at leopard sharks and horn sharks that he experiments. He taught us all about the behaviors of leopard sharks and why he studies them. We drove from the lab to La Jolla Kayak and then walked to La Jolla shores to go snorkeling. The water was murky but we saw fish and stingray. We all had a great time snorkeling and learning about different species of animals and sharks.
