Dr. Brent Stewart on whale shark expedition
Check out this amazing video of HSWRI senior research scientist, Dr. Brent Stewart, who is being interviewed by Lene Topp from WWF Denmark during a whale shark expedition in the Philippines expedition last June. There is some beautiful underwater footage of whale sharks as well as Brent and his collaborators and colleagues from WWF and the local Donsol community team tagging the sharks. During this trip they were able to place 11 tags on 10 sharks. Since May 2009, 44 tags were out on whale sharks in addition to 45 whale sharks tagged in 2008, making this the largest whale whark tracking program in the world. View Now
