Mosman Daily Article featuring 2018 Emerald Dinner Speakers: Drs Vic Peddemors and Amy Smoothey

 

Drs. Vic Peddemors and Amy Smoothey are based at the Sydney
Institute of Marine Science at Chowder Bay and are part of the NSW Department
of Primary Industries. The DPI launched the Sydney Harbour bull shark tagging
program in
2009. 

Prior to its foundation, very little was
known about shark movements in the harbour or what the feared creatures were

and they have found interesting information about their patterns.

Vic and Amy are set to captivate guests at the 2018 Emerald Dinner.  Book your ticket now
