Life Below The Surface- A Georgia Aquarium Podcast

On the season's final episode, we are taking a (literal) deep-dive into the world below the surface of our exhibits.  I am joined by our diving experts to talk about their jobs that take them and their teams, underwater in some of the world's largest exhibits.

Have you ever wondered how a penguin gets a checkup? Or how do you give a beluga whale an ultrasound? And HOW do you do surgery on a fish? Today we will take you on a deeper dive into the health care of the animals at Georgia Aquarium and learn more from the people who care for them.

On this episode, we are diving into our most frequently asked questions - how do you train your dolphins and how do I become a dolphin trainer?  Here to answer those questions are Lisa Bodechon, senior director fo animal training for dolphins and Chris Frymier, associate curator of dolphins.  

Do penguins really mate for life? Today we are answering that question by taking you on a trip to our African penguin habitat to hear tales of penguin love stories, heartbreak and even some dating drama!

Today we celebrate International Women in Science Day by speaking with a panel of dedicated and inspirational women who work at Georgia Aquarium. Their stories and careers will hopefully encourage the next generation of female aquarists, researchers, and scientists to make waves in the fields of STEM/STEAM.
