<p>In this episode, the crew makes like a remora and dives into… a new topic! Cloacal diving has been making its way around the internet and these manta rays and remoras don&#39;t even know how famous they are. Join us as we discuss the dynamics of a host and its symbionts with <strong>Emily Yeager</strong>, who published this enrapturing paper on fish swimming up into manta rays and much much more!</p><p><br></p><p>Links to the papers referenced in this episode can be found on our <a href="https://gettingfishypod.substack.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Substack</a>. </p><p><br></p><p>The cloacal diving study we discussed in this episode was a collaborative effort between the <a href="https://sharkresearch.earth.miami.edu/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">University of Miami Shark Research and Conservation Program</a>, the <a href="https://marinemegafauna.org/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Marine Megafauna Foundation</a>, and the <a href="https://www.mantatrust.org/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Manta Trust</a>.

Known for its characteristic yellow and black vertical bars, the freshwater perch inhabits lakes, ponds and streams. Unlike birds, yellow perch are incapable of perching anywhere. During the breeding season, females lay their eggs and males follow them to fertilize them as a group, in what can only be considered a sperm race. Sounds freaky as hell! Cheers to you, yellow perch!</p><p><br></p><p>Thanks for listening to Gettin’ Fishy With It!
