Listen in as we discuss why sharks are just misunderstood and far less scary than a lot of #sharkweek may have us believe. Comment with what shark facts you learned in the episode, and what else you’d like to learn about these sensitive sweeties!
**Big Takeaway: The best thing we can do to help our cartilaginous friends is tell others about what you learn; these incredible and important fish need our help, not our fear.
