The release of the Ocean Vet TV series comes just after the second anniversary of Dr Neil Burnie’s passing and marks an important and emotional milestone for the team.
Choy Aming, who was a close friend of Dr Burnie’s and serves as the series’ Marine Biologist, said, “Neil wanted everyone to watch Ocean Vet, it was his dream to provide a window into the underwater world so Ocean Vet on Vimeo on Demand helps to achieve this.
“Neil believed wholeheartedly that experiencing and learning about the ocean develops an appreciation for it, an appreciation that often leads to an increased desire to protect it and conserve it.
“Ocean Vet is a unique TV series all about Bermuda’s marine ecosystems and its fascinating marine species. It’s also a wonderful keepsake to remember a man who dedicated so much of his life to the protection of many animals and creatures on our island.”
