Southern Californians go shark tagging

On October 15th, a group of intrepid undersea explorers from Southern California will travel to the remote coastal village of Bahia de Los Angeles on the Sea of Cortez. There they will try to tag whale sharks. It's part of a project organized by Woodland Hills based Iemanya Oceanica to preserve these mammoth sharks. KPCC's Alex Cohen spoke with Patty Civalleri of Iemanya Oceanica's Board of Directors about the trip.
