About the event

Conservation Conversations: Shark Ray 360
Join WAVE Foundation for a conversation on Shark Ray research. Newport Aquarium Biologists Jen Hazeres and Jolene Hanna are back to discuss their continued research on the critically endangered Bowmouth Guitarfish, more commonly known as Shark Rays. Newport Aquarium was the first facility in North America to have Shark Rays and is well known for successful breeding of the species. In Spring 2025, Jen and Jolene traveled to Singapore as part of a consortium called Shark Ray 360. Shark Ray 360 is made up of researchers and biologists committed to Shark Ray conservation on a global scale. Jen and Jolene will share out information on their trip and what is currently being done to help Shark Rays in human care and in the wild.
