This presentation takes us under the sea, through streams and estuaries to reveal the inner lives of the world’s most misunderstood and exploited vertebrates. Although they exceed thirty thousand species―more than all mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians combined―fishes have been widely seen as lacking minds, emotions, and experiences. In reality, fishes are sentient, aware, social, even Machiavellian.
