We dive into one of LA’s nearby forests, the kelp forest! Off our coast, huge kelp beds thrive and support a whole variety of sea creatures. We tour the fish collection at NHM and meet the rockfish, Garibaldi and bat rays that call the kelp home, as well as some tropical fish and sharks that visit during El Nino.
