Beyond the Blue

Fish in an aquarium in the Schad Gallery of Biodiversity

Ahoy, me hearties! Cast off into the great blue on this seafaring spree with evolutionary biologist Danielle de Carle. Learn all about the DIVE-ersity of ocean life from vast and colourful coral reef systems to bizarre and glowing deep-sea fishes. Find out how deep the ocean is, how much of it we've explored, and just how much life really lives in Earth's great open waters. Uncover the intricate ecosystem of our ocean’s deepest depths and how destructive human behaviours are putting them at risk. Be inspired by the beauty of ocean life with a jellyfish craft or create your own mini ocean with a tricky density experiment.
