We are off until January but wanted to share some amazing podcasts with you! First off, @tnaquarium.bsky.social has a podcast! Learn from their incredible staff and aquarium partners. We hope to get to visit this wonderful facility some day! You can find "The Podcast Aquatic" on all platforms.
From better shark PR and eating bugs to exhibit design and conservation wins, our o-fish-ial podcast has covered a LOT of ground.
To celebrate our 50th (🥳) episode, host Casey is in the hot seat -- for once -- to talk about his favorite moments and the future of the show!

Today was a fantastic day! Two other teachers at my school and I just happen to have previously worked together at the @tnaquarium.bsky.social and today we were invited to bring a group of students to participate in a sturgeon release. The kids had a blast!
