Meeting #18 Bamboo shark cognition & AGM information
BIG thank you to Kylie Bostick for sharing her research with captive bamboo sharks.
Some highlights from Kylie’s talk included:
Talking about how environmental enrichment may promote positive wellbeing in captive sharks.
Learning how she carries out cognitive bias tests on captive bamboo sharks at Irukandji Shark and Ray Encounters in NSW.
Hearing about some exciting preliminary results from her experiments.
We also heard from our President, Liat, who went over the executive team roles for 2025 that are now open…
This is a great opportunity to be more involved with The FINstitute and to directly support our conservation efforts!
Positions up for grabs are VP, Secretary, Treasurer, Field Trip Coordinator, Social Event Coordinator and Social Media Manager.
Stay tuned for our Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Monday, 9th September in Building 134 Room 010 where you’ll run and vote your pick for these positions.
