Description

The mega-sized ocean sunfish may look like a lazy half fish with no tail. But don't be fooled! They have an active agenda and are capable of burst speeds, launching their massive bodies out of the ocean, and diving thousands of feet. Marine biologist, science communicator and National Geographic Explorer Dr. Tierney Thys shares her knowledge and passion for the Molids and the mysteries of the sea.
