Zoologia Danica Pattedyr XVI by Lovendal. From NBWM Kendall Collection.
For those of you with an interest in whale vocalizations and a keen ear, you might be interested in this opportunity to aid in whale research. ” The collective wisdom of the crowd is being called upon to help scientists decipher the language of pilot and killer whales in a project that could help us operate our machines in harmony with the ocean giants.”
After reading about unusual strandings and deaths of Cuvier’s Beaked Whales in the waters off of Italy over the last 36 hours, presumably in the same areas as sonar testing, this type of research and new knowledge is critically important. Let us know if you do choose to participate. Call Bob Rocha at extension 149.
