Happy New Year from Southern Fried Science!

It’s January 1, 2025. David Shiffman and I have been writing on this old blog for 17 years

To mark the milestone, we’ve decided to switch things up. Today, David Shiffman is writing about conservation and biodiversity in the the deep sea. Today Andrew D Thaler is writing about the perception of sharks in the popular media.

Maybe don’t take us too seriously, today.
