'Shark Lady' Eugenie Clark, Famed Marine Biologist, Has Died
A pioneer in marine conservation and the study of shark behavior, Clark helped the public understand and appreciate the much maligned species.
Eugenie Clark, an American marine biologist who fell in love with sharks as a child with her nose pressed against an aquarium tankâand whose research on the much maligned species earned her the nickname âShark Ladyââdied Wednesday morning in Sarasota, Florida. She was 92.
The death was confirmed by National Geographic photographer David Doubilet, her colleague and friend.
A pioneer in the use of scuba gear to conduct underwater scientific research and a veteran of more than 70 deep dives in submersibles, Clark continued diving into her nineties, even after being diagnosed with non-smoking-related lung cancer.
"She never outgrew this absolute fascination of looking and seeing and observing under water," said Doubilet, an underwater photographer who swam beside Clark for the majority of the dozen National Geographic magazine stories she wrote. "Even when I was a younger man and she was older, I couldnât keep up with her. She moved with a kind of liquid speed underwater."
Before Clark began her research on sharks in the 1950s, the animals were considered both dumb and deadly. âAfter some study,â she said, âI began to realize that these âgangsters of the deepâ had gotten a bad rap.â
Although she would conduct research on other fishâshe discovered several species and had some named in her honorâmuch of her work was focused on sharks and dispelling the publicâs fears about them, especially after the 1975 movie Jaws. One of her National Geographic stories was titled, âSharks: Magnificent and Misunderstood.â
Clark discovered the first effective shark repellent in secretions from a flatfish called Moses sole that lives in the Red Sea. She ventured into undersea caverns off Mexicoâs YucatĂĄn Peninsula to find âsleeping sharksâ suspended in the water, a discovery that upended scientistsâ belief that sharks had to keep moving to breathe.
"Her contributions were astounding," Doubilet said.

The Vampire Squid from Hell by ScienceFriday
The footage shown here is some of the most beautiful and high-quality shots I've ever seen of the vampire squid - really, really pretty, and informative!
Ok so I canât make this post all formal because I need to do this quick because weâre running out of time.
These are Maui Dolphins and they are one the cutest creatures Iâve ever seen. They are only found off the west coast of New zealandâs North Island. They only grow up to 1.7m long.Â
Just today I found out there are only 55 of them left in the world and it makes me sad seeing my favourite animal facing extinction. So I need your help to spread the word and sign this petition to help save the last 55. All you need to do is enter your name, email address and the country you live in. Itâs not that much, guys!Â
