Georg Steller was the physician and\u00c2\u00a0naturalist on Vitus Bering&#8217;s second expedition to search for the\u00c2\u00a0connection between Asia and North America. Along the way, Steller became\u00c2\u00a0the first Westerner to collect and scientifically describe numerous animals and plants, including the first scientific accounts of the\u00c2\u00a0Steller sea lion, the northern fur seal, the sea otter, and the\u00c2\u00a0Steller&#8217;s sea cow. A few of these species, like Steller himself, did notsurvive for \u00c2\u00a0long after that fateful voyage and others have recently been\u00c2\u00a0threatened with extinction. \u00c2\u00a0Join us as RUSS ANDREWS of the Alaska\u00c2\u00a0Sealife Center and the School of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences, UAF,\u00c2\u00a0shares more about Steller&#8217;s discoveries, discusses more recent\u00c2\u00a0scientific research conducted on many of these same species in far\u00c2\u00a0eastern Russia and Alaska, and describes the high-tech equipment that is\u00c2\u00a0enabling scientists to increase our understanding of the animals that\u00c2\u00a0have fallen under Steller\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s curse.
