#WorldOceanDay was the perfect time to chat about the amazing Giant spider π¦ that come together in the Bay at this time of the year on @Channel10AU. So thrilled my job allows me to raise awareness for & increase knowledge of the biodiversity of the #GreatSouthernReef!

We know so little about spider crabs' lives, despite the fact that their gatherings have been fascinating the community for decades. We're enlisting the help of citizen scientists to help answer some burning questions. Thank you @GSR_Australia for promoting our @Deakin research!
Every winter, spider crabs gather in Port Phillip Bay, amassing in their tens of thousands to complete their moulting process. In our new video, Dr. @ECamprasse of #SpiderCrabWatch, explains how little we still know about these iconic animals.

@SarahMackAttack @KirtOnthank @invertebabe Where I live in Melbourne, I often see the Southern bobtail (Euprymna tasmanica) in shallow waters (2-6 m) so I associate these with shallow waters :) stunning little creatures
