Elizabeth Bevan never lost her fascination with the sea. She earned a degree in marine biology at Florida International University. Then the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill brought her to Alabama — and the doctoral program in the UAB College of Arts and Sciences Department of Biology, where she studies sea turtles with her mentor, professor Thane Wibbels, Ph.D. In this episode we will talk about commercial fishing, pollution and other environmental stressors that have devastated sea turtle populations all over the planet. We will dive into how the adoption of drone technology has supported conservation and preservation of this magnificent species.
