WDCS, The Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society has just launched a comprehensive on-line guide to whales and dolphins. This species guide provides interesting and easy to use insights into their habitats and behavior. In it you will find information on the 85 currently recognized species of whales, dolphins and porpoises, collectively known as ‘cetaceans’.
The guide, which is of particular use to students, researchers, the tourist trade, and journalists, comes in three languages, and provides interesting and easy to use insights into the creature’s habitats, behaviour, and where to find them. It also features 80 maps, over 400 images, a threat index (which highlights the level of danger facing each species).
