We ended the last day of class with one final lab. We looked at barnacles that were found on the mangroves in Cudjoe Key, and viewed the changes with the "worms".
Lab Specialty
After snorkeling in Sugarloaf Key, we went to the lab where we had a special opportunity to study tunicates.
Bringing the Lab to the Field
After our exploration of the mangrove island in Looe Key, we ventured to the lab. We examined a "mucus egg sack" and a newly born, late stage embryo yellow stingray (Urobatis jamaicencis).
