From Jennifer Kennedy:

My goal with this site is to help you learn about the fascinating world of marine life that inhabit our oceans - from gigantic whales and sharks to tiny marine invertebrates and plankton. I enjoy educating a wide range of audiences about marine life, and interpreting sometimes complex scientific information in a way that both adults and children can relate to and understand.
