Jasmin joins PhD student and Minorities In Shark Sciences co-founder Jaida Elcock on her mission to find and tag a massive and mysterious shark: the basking shark. If Jaida can succeed at tagging the endangered animals, then she can understand where these animals hide out and how to protect them. But it won’t be easy, so an international collaboration with friends in Ireland might hold some answers.

On Sharks Unknown, host Jasmin Graham joins her peers in shark science to investigate mysteries including shark migration, and the effects of climate change. Jasmin and her guests connect on how their lives inform and impact their research.
