If you consider a "profession" to be something one does in exchange for money, then technically I’ve been a professional marine biologist since I was fourteen years old. I’ve never had any other job. And in these past thirty years I’ve learned about many mind-bogglingly incredible sea animals. Fish that migrate thousands of miles to spawn, Disney-inspired octopods, fossilized teeth of fifty-foot long predatory sharks. Although I’m still just as awed by the natural world around us as that kid back in 1980, there just isn’t very much left that truly makes my jaw drop.
The Pacific barreleye made my jaw drop.
