#13 Aricia and the seals

Why should you hurry to book your tickets to Guatemala this November? What does it mean to become a BioOne Ambassador? And why are more and more Antarctic seals stranding on Brazil’s coastline? <br/><br/>Dr Aricia Duarte Benvenuto has all the answers. She is a PhD candidate at the University of Sao Paul and investigates the pathogens of the local aquatic mammals. Listen in to her story! <br/><br/>Check out the website of our Latin American section and their upcoming conference in Guatemala: https://www.wdalatinoamerica.org/ <br/><br/>Watch Aricia’s winning video for the BioOne Ambassador award: https://bioonepublishing.org/our-work/2022-ambassadors/aricia-duarte-benvenuto/ <br/><br/>Picture caption: Photo taken during the health assessments of the Araguaia river dolphin (Inia araguaiaensis) in the Araguaia river in september 2022.
