WIN A WEEK LONG RESEARCH EXPEDITION WORTH $3,000!
Fahlo is partnering with Saving the Blue to giveaway a week long research tip in the Bahamas !
As a research assistant with Saving the Blue, you will be a fully integrated member of their team. You will be trained for every activity, so no previous experience is necessary. You will receive lessons on basic boating, knots, and essential shark anatomy, among other fascinating topics.
Throughout the week, you will be given relevant lectures and presentations by Saving the Blues expedition leaders. You will be taught how to process and ‘work up’ a shark for research, including tagging. Please note: As per the Bahamas Department of Environmental Planning and Protection (DEPP), participation in all or some of the activities will be dependent on your experience and education level. Those holding a marine biology degree (or similar) will participate in all tasks, those without this level of relevant education will take part in all activities that do not involve the handling of an animal e.g. a shark or ray. All assistants regardless of experience and education will participate in equipment creation and deployment, data collection, they will also attend lectures and presentations. Expect some long days, hard work, and some challenging situations such as night time fishing, potentially exceeding six hours.
