Save Our Seahorses
By Gillian Marsh
Save Our Seahorses is the fascinating,
heartbreaking, but ultimately hope-affirming
story from GMarsh TV of the charismatic
Irish marine biologist Kealan Doyle and his
dogged attempt to save an extraordinary
species from extinction.
Featuring revealing and intimate natural
history footage of the seahorse and spanning
ten years in Doyle’s life, this is a business
story with a decided twist. Despite his lack
of commercial experience, Doyle emerges
as a uniquely driven individual. Even in
the face of failure and bankruptcy, it is this
determination that ultimately saves him.

The First Breath
By Kurt Amsler
A Sperm whale gives birth surrounded by
a pod of other females. After the baby is
born, other whales step in appearing to act
as midwives. They then escort the newborn
to the surface so it can take its first breath.
Birth was captured on camera by Kurt
Amsler in the Azores Island. He says that
was the greatest experience in over 45 years
underwater photography….

The Sea Turtles of Lamu
By D. David Morin
In 1992, the sea turtles of Lamu were beyond
endangered... they were approaching
extinction. Poaching in Africa isn’t just
elephant tusks and rhino horns, it also
includes sea turtles.
This is the story of LAMCOT & Odo, a
conservancy trust and a former poacher,
who have single-handedly saved sea turtles
on the remote Manda Island off the coast
of Kenya in the Lamu archipelago. They are
helping the turtles overcome the odds of 1
in a 1000 to survive against poachers, oil
pipelines and fishermen.
