This documentary reveals the underwater world of the Queen Conch, the jewel of The Bahamas archipelago, chronicling the life cycle of this colorful mollusk from an egg, to metamorphosis into its shell covered life. We see what it eats, how it reproduces, and its predators on land and in the sea. Today, people have become the greatest threat to their survival in The Bahamas. Watch the film and find out how people can join in an international effort to preserve the Queen Conch for future generations. The film will be released in 2018 and seen throughout the islands in schools and on television.

Support and logistics for this production were provided by: Bahamas National Trust, Bahama Reef Environment Education Foundation, Hummingbird Cay Foundation, Royal Bahamas Defense Force, Bahamas Dept. of Marine Resources, and Community Conch.
