The ‘Giant’ Whales of the Gulf of St. Lawrence with Franco Mariotti
A closeup perspective of the magnificent and largest creatures on this planet. Discover the secret lives of Humpback, Fin and the biggest of them all, the Blue Whale. Meet the researcher who has devoted his life to studying them and how he is answering some of their biggest mysteries.
Franco Mariotti is a Biologist, Naturalist and a Science Communicator. He was employed at Science North for 32 years where he developed programs/presentations for the public, delivered hundreds of presentations and developed content for exhibits and videos. Through this work he was able to travel to fascinating ‘wild’ places, such as Tanzania in the making of an IMAX film on Dr. Jane Goodall and to Borneo in another IMAX film on Orangutans.

The cost is only $25 for an individual or $40 for a family for the year, and lets you participate in our walks and other events as well, as well as get exclusive links to webinar presentations. 7pm – Virtual Meeting over Zoom
