Today we were lucky enough to have Richard de Hamal from the University of Otago come and talk to us.
He taught us about food chains and webs, fish and parts of fishing boats.
Some of the things that we learnt were:
- There is a hospital on a fishing trawler. Charle
- Orange Roughy are poisonous. Camryn
- Albatross kept on getting killed by wire ropes on trawlers. A Nelson invention now stops them from getting killed. Boats all around the world use this invention now. Sophie
- That if you kill one species a whole heap of others species will also die. Lucy
Some questions that we have after talking to Richard are:
- What's the population of kina in the world currently? Ben P
- Why are Orange Roughie poisonous? Jemma
