In our first ever episode of the Whole Tooth, we take a deep dive into the weird and wonderful world of shark mating and reproduction! Digressions include the shark that takes 150 years to reach sexual maturity, baby sharks that chow down on their brothers and sisters in the womb, and the seriously cute baby sunfish.
Our special guests this week are the incredible Jillian Morris-Brake, marine biologist, award-winning underwater photographer and founder of Sharks4Kids, and multi-talented shark researcher, scuba diver and Sharks4Kids ambassador, Jenny Bortoluzzi. Sharks4Kids is a non-profit dedicated to encouraging the next generation of shark advocates through outreach, education, and adventure (www.sharks4kids.com). You can follow Jillian on @biminisharkgirl and Jenny on @sharkyjenny.
