We’re joined by Blanche D’Anastasi to talk Sea Snakes, along with some insanely decadent Ocean Cake and Negronis to finish #NegroniWeek2019! Blanche is a marine biologist, applied conservation researcher & sea-snake expert, currently completing a PhD on threatened sea snakes at James Cook University. She’s a member of the International Union for Conservation of Nature Sea Snake Specialist Group, contributor to the IUCN Global Status Review of Sawfish, and research partner with OceanWise Australia. Blanche is also the Director of the Deadly Science Getaway, inspiring passion for science & leadership among young Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander women through remote field science expeditions. We discuss all things sea-snake related over our very rich drink and dessert pairing J Enjoy, and Happy #NegroniWeek everyone!
