Seahorse Talk at Falmpouth Aquarium

By November 30, 2012The Seahorse Trust News

The Seahorse Trust talk was a huge success at Falmouth Aquarium ( http://www.facebook.com/falmouthaquarium ) on the 26th November, despite the awful weather and flooded roads, over 40 people attended! Lots of Exexter University, Falmouth Marine School students and members of the public attended, it was a great turn out. The aim was to educate the public on the importance of preserving habitats that seahorses are found in, the prime example being seagrass beds, protection of their home means protecting them as a species. The Seahorse Tagging project was also discussed and how the findings have been insightful in their ecology and reproduction. There were many questions and donations given to this important charity – hopefully a talk that will be repeated in the future! – Lauren Timson
