Settle in for a powerful one-on-one conversation with Executive Director Chantal Audran from Tybee Island Marine Science Center about the true heartbeat of the work they do with Education and Conservation. You will hear about the work that goes on in the field every day at the Science Center - including what happens during rescue missions. Chantal says, "feeling that connection to the organisms we are protecting is so important, not only for the growth of the scientists and marine educators but also for the species we are trying to understand and preserve".
Yes, the team is educating thousands of people who step into Tybee Island Marine Science Center - but it's really the conservation projects, the unseen work that they do, that they are so passionate about.
There are four main conservation projects at the Science Center, all of which involve a species of concern - an animal that needs help from helpful humans.
Warning: you will get bit by the passion bug after listening to this episode!
