"Build a Shark" (11:30am or 2:00pm)

Participants "design-build" a life-size white shark model piece by piece, discovering how each organ and sense of this awesome creature functions. By handling teeth and skin artifacts, and viewing a short documentary on our Farallones sharks, they'll learn how their 400-million-year-old design still works to make them formidable top predators.

"Shark Survivor" Talk (11:30am or 2:00pm)

The World of Sharks - presentation by shark expert.

Space is limited for the special programs, registration required! Contact Sara Heintzelman, sara.heintzelman@noaa.gov to reserve a spot.
