Peter Klimley has been studying sharks for decades. His experiences with a variety of species, including the much-feared great white shark, have shed light on natural behaviors rarely witnessed by others. Known as Dr. Hammerhead for his groundbreaking work on hammerhead sharks in the Gulf of California, Klimley refutes claims that sharks are “mindless killing machines.†They are very complex, even social animals.
Klimley has developed an understanding and appreciation of these amazing animals, and provides compelling reasons for shark conservation and how it can be achieved. Don’t miss this exciting Science Sunday lecture that caps off “Shark Science Week†at the Seymour Center.
