21/12/2005: "ROBERT ENDEAN PhD.......(the late) Dr Bob Endean"

Bob was not excited with the large portrait of himself, but he agreed to be photographed alongside it.

He is shown surrounded by live coral (underwater) with his bush hat in one hand and mask and snorkle in the other.

The Reader in Zoology (pronounced zo-ology, NOT zoo-ology) at the University of Queensland for many years.

This photo has just surfaced and is proudly presented here in the memory of this great champion of coral reefs conservation and especially education.

Bob was the first person I heard refer to the Great Barrier Reef in the plural, i.e.Great Barrier Reefs.
