🗣 How A Shark Thinks -- SFPL (& Early Dinner)

🔆 While a few shark species are dangerous wildlife, the public portrayal of sharks as villains and killers is overblown. Explore how sharks interact with and influence the environment. Distinguish fact from myth and learn about these fascinating animals.

▪︎ Stephen Palumbi is a Professor of Marine Sciences and Biology at Stanford University, Senior Fellow at Woods Institute for the Environment and leader of The Palumbi Lab at Hopkins Marine Station.

🍒 This event is presented in partnership with Wonderfest, The Bay Area Beacon of Science.

🔆 Before attending the Shark talk, we'll go to the lower level of the library to view a photography exhibit that was highly recommended by a friend. More details here:
