Bay scallops, once an important part of Virginia's seafood industry, nearly went extinct in the early 1930s due to disease and an intense hurricane. Join Mark Luckenbach, Associate Dean of Research and Advisory Services at VIMS, as he describes the life history of scallops and explores efforts to re-establish a population of bay scallops to the seaside bays of Virginia' Eastern Shore. Observe live specimens, test scallop vision, make scallop crafts, and more!
