Life of a marine biologist | plans for 2024

[@petecunningham47]

I am thrilled to have just discovered your channel. My family has been involved in environmental issues since the early to mid '60s and I originally wanted to be a Oceanographic Engineer inspired by Cousteau's underwater habitats off Key Largo in Florida (that gives you a clue to my age!). Unfortunately I wasn't up to par with the math, so decided to be a teacher instead, but have remained committed to do whatever I can to help protect our beautiful earth. I will certainly be continuing to support this channel as much as I can. I hope you find something within a reasonable time frame.

HI Telly i'm going into high school and I want to get a head start on extracurriculars and things - I was just wondering what I should do so I can add it to my resume and learn more about marine biology?

You are an amazing lady!

You want to see rays? Offshore Abu Dhabi in the oil fields (about 60kms offshore) there are thousands of them. Literally (the Arabian Gulf is very shallow there in Zackum, you can see the bottom. Also watch a few videos of Strick & Frans Adventures, their underwater photography and editing is really good and they show all kinds of rays from the big Manta to the small shovelnose(?) 🙂

So in other words, being a marine biologist is a good job or not? I mean why world it be?

At some point you might have to take the plunge become a marine biologist without borders. Sucks if you want to be close to your family tho.
