Dragons of the Deep

Step into a surprisingly vibrant underwater world and discover the true Pokemon-like rockstars of the British coastline: nudibranchs. Often called the “butterflies of the sea,” these naked-gilled sea slugs are a kaleidoscopic explosion of neon pinks, electric blues, and fiery oranges hidden right under our noses. In this fascinating talk, we’ll dive into their bizarre and beautiful lives—from their intricate, feathery structures to their toxic defense mechanisms and fierce predatory habits (they don't just eat anemones; they steal their stings!). Whether you are a seasoned diver, a rockpool explorer, or simply a lover of wildlife, this talk may change how you view British marine life.
