IN A FLAPPER

The Scottish Association for Marine Science is seeking help to protect critically endangered flapper skate that inhabit the waters from Loch Sunart to the Sound of Jura. Marine managers want to build a catalogue listing individual fish and their travels. A citizen science project called Skatespotter has been designed to create an online database of flapper skate in Scotland so they can be identified by their spots. skatespotter.sams.ac.uk
