A specialist in the behavior of large predators
Twenty years of research on the interactions between marine top predators and humans, across every ocean in the world.
A veterinarian by training, I specialized in marine biology, environmental economics and eco-anthropology. Since 2005, my research has focused on the role of sharks in tropical ecosystems, with a particular emphasis on shark bites on humans.
An etho-ecologist, I am also a national freediving instructor, a commercial diver, a professional drone pilot, a private airplane pilot and a director of award-winning documentaries. I advocate for shark conservation through conferences, books and the media.

The career and activities that shaped my expertise.

Abandoning the word “attack” in favor of the neutral, factual term “bite”.
Widely accepted, never proven: the shark explores, it does not “make a mistake”.
With no proven effectiveness and a source of ecosystem imbalance, indiscriminate culls must be banned.
A precious tool to study, monitor and divert sharks away from humans.
Bears, wolves, lynx: the same fight for acceptance and peaceful coexistence.
An oasis of life and a sentinel of climate change, the atoll must be protected at all costs.
