This week catch up with Haley and Sydney as they chat with Grace Keast, a citizen scientist and sea slug aficionado. Grace has worked with a number of different conservation organizations over the years and over time has fallen in love with the sea slug, an unsuspecting but magnificent creature! Her admiration of these animals has led her to establish the Western Australia branch of the Sea Slug Census where once a year she selects and trains volunteers, and creates events to survey the sea slug species of Western Australia. This week, she shares her favorite nudis, her biggest challenges, and her funniest moments beneath the ocean's surface. Full episode is available on Patreon.
