Description

Learn about the Bowmouth Guitarfish, an elasmobranch species, in depth at this special workshop.

Learn about the habitat and range of the Bowmouth Guitarfish, how common they are, what food items they eat in the wild, how large they grow and their physiology etc.  Then learn specifically about the Bowmouth Guitarfish at Sea Life, “Lola," including how the aquarium obtained Lola, where she came from, how she was transported to Sea Life, how the staff specifically care for her at the aquarium, what her size is, what her diet in captivity is, things you have to be careful with in keeping a Bowmouth Guitarfish in captivity, and also learn about some other aquariums that have Bowmouth Guitarfish here in the United States. 

We will spend 90 minutes in a variety of interactive tasks learning specifically about Bowmouth Guitarfish and then have another hour to explore the aquarium on our own.
