Protected Nautilus

From NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research:

Last dive of the #Okeanos 2017 American Samoa expedition, coming up in a few hours! Today's dive will take us to the site of a protected Nautili population in the Taena Bank area, at depths between 300 and 400 meters, near the harbor of Pago Pago, American Samoa. No guarantees that we'll see a nautilus, but just in case, brush up on what a nautilus actually is with this info from theNational Ocean Service: http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/nautilus.html
