What's in the water?

This month we’re diving into the stuff that makes up two thirds of the Earth’s surface. Can you use genetics to figure out what’s in the water? We put the science to the test by making a geneticist guess our mystery fish. Plus, a story about whales and dolphins: what do you lose when you leave the land? Jump in, the water's fine.
