You won’t beleive this video of this surfer saving this baby great white shark in Venice Beach, CA.

I was amazed how quickly they took action.

Yay!  Humans helping sharks instead of killing them.

I love a good feel good story.

Happy Fishes,

Warren

Have you every wondered what it would be like to be a fish hatchery manager?

Well now you don’t have to wonder any more. We just finished another interview in the series Careers In Marine Biology, featuring Hatchery Manager Kellen Weissenbach of  the Whitebrook Tilapia Farm on the Under The Sea Radio Show.

Pretty fascinating to learn what it this job is like, and you’ll be surprised to learn what qualities make a good fish hatchery manager.

So go there now and you can download the recording or podcast it to listen to later on your iPod or iPhone, etc..

And don’t miss tomorrow’s interview at 4:00pm (EDT) with Dyan DeNapoli (A.K.A The Penguin Lady) auther of the The Great Penguin Rescue.  You’ve just got to hear her story.  It is incredible to say the least.

Happy Fishes,

Warren
