I would like to dedicate this book to my family and friends – particularly my son Attila, my wife and dive buddy Brigitta, my dad Joseph, my mom Tamara, my brother Trevor, my brother-in-law Dani, my sister-in-law Amanda, and my mother-in-law Eva - for all their love and support. I would like to share a special dedication with my son Attila: when you are older, I hope that we, as humanity, have come up with the solutions to save tropical coral reefs and mitigate global climate change and so you can see, in person, all the wonderful animals that I used to read to you about. Likewise Attila, I began writing this book when you were three and just learning how to swim in our pool; jumping off the diving board and getting comfortable with swimming underwater with your eyes open and getting used to putting on a mask and snorkel; and how can we forget you “SCUBA diving” into pillow piles. I wish the same for my niece Adrian, my nephew Paul, and my goddaughter Olivia. I would also like to thank my former teachers Dan Bisaccio, Christopher Brooks, and Joseph Domask and the School for Field Studies for teaching me about the natural world, about how to be an analytical thinker, and opening up my mind to a world of adventurous travels.
