About the Author
Scott Michael has been obsessed with elasmobranchs since the age of twelve, after encountering his first shark in a public aquarium. While still in high school he studied the food habits and abundance of sharks in the Gulf of Mexico, and has since conducted shark and ray research in the Sea of Cortez, Australia, and New Zealand. His endeavors to collect photographs and observe sharks and rays have taken him from Cocoa Island, Costa Rica to New Guinea and several locations in the Caribbean. He has contributed photographs and articles to numerous publications and was recently a scientific consultant for a National Geographic documentary on shark and ray behavior. He is a member of the American Elasmobranch Society, and currently leads dive trips, dubbed "Shark Safaris", which give divers the opportunity to observe and learn more about these fascinating animals.
