THE DAY BEGINS...
An educational adventure awaits as we board our research vessel for a
five and a
half hour science cruise, The vessel leaves from Pier 55 on Seattle's
Waterfront. After a
brief orientation we introduce the staff biologists and ship's crew,
then review safety rules,
and outline the day's activities.
MEET PUGET SOUND
How was Puget Sound formed? Why is it so biologically productive? What
makes this
body of water unique? What kinds of animals call it home? We explore
these and other
questions. Special attention is given to animal feeding types and
pollution factors
threatening Puget Sound's health.
