SUMMARY:"Shark Research in Hawaii – With an Emphasis on Maui"  Free Presentation by Kim Holland\, PhD 
DESCRIPTION:Recent shark attacks that occurred off the coast of Maui in November (2020)\, December (2020) and January (2021)\, as well as an incident in February (2021) which involved a large shark biting a kayak\, have many ocean users concerned and curious about the sharks found in our nearshore waters. \nThe public is invited to learn more about our local sharks at a free Zoom presentation titled “Shark Research in Hawaii – With an Emphasis on Maui.” It wlll be presented by Dr. Kim Holland\, Research Professor at Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology\, (HIMB) at University of Hawaii at Manoa and the founder of the Shark Research Group at HIMB. \nThis free talk is hosted by Maui Nui Marine Resource Council’s “Know Your Ocean Speaker Series” and will take place on Wednesday\, March 3 at 5:30 pm via Zoom. The presentation is free\, but advance reservations are required. To reserve your spot\, please visit https://bit.ly/SharkWebinar \nFor over 40 years Dr. Holland’s research has focused on the biology and movement patterns of large marine fishes such as tuna\, billfishes and sharks. He has been a pioneer in helping to develop and deploy cutting edge tracking technologies that allow unprecedented insight into the movement patterns of marine fishes. \nHis presentation will include a brief overview of tracking technologies with an emphasis on what has been learned about the movements of sharks around Maui Nui. \n“While many Maui residents and visitors are fearful about sharks\, it’s important to remember that sharks play an important role in maintaining Hawaii’s ocean ecosystems\,” said Anne Rillero\, Communications\, Community Outreach and Development Manager at Maui Nui Marine Resource Council. “We’re looking forward to learning more about Dr. Holland’s findings and insights about Hawaii’s sharks.” \nMaui Nui Marine Resource Council’s “Know Your Ocean Speaker Series” events are held monthly via Zoom. Support for these events is provided by the County of Maui Mayor’s Office of Economic Development. \nThe emcee for this event is Darla Palmer-Ellingson\, local radio show host of the public affairs program Island Environment 360 — Maui’s only commercially broadcast public affairs show on environmental and related Hawaiian cultural topics\, aired on the stations of H-Hawaii Media. \n
