Perspectives Lecture: The Hungry Octopus and the Endangered Abalone

Cost: $5 - $8
With Jennifer Hofmeister, Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Octopuses — that's right, "octopuses" — are one of the most common and important predators along the coast of Southern California. These intelligent hunters prey on a wide range of species, including endangered abalone. To help abalone recover, Scripps Oceanographers must first understand the complexities of octopus behavior.
