Hey. Sorry I haven't posted for a while. I have been very busy. This weekend I went for a beach clean-up. Which is another easy, fun way to help, It's the little things that count. All you do is grab a suncream, sunhat beach clothing plastic bag and rubber gloves and your ready to go. Another fun activity is to go to Green point park, a great outing out. But enough chit chat. This post is about whales.

As many people around the world know, the sport know as whaling has become quite popular. This has lead to a serious decline in whales all around the world. Normally when considering ‘status’, one is interested in (a) where a population is now compared to where it was originally and (b) where it is going in the future. In other words one does not only need information on present abundance but also on trends in abundance. The importance of long-term monitoring cannot be over-emphasised and further details of monitoring and how we can achieve it for cetaceans can be foundhere.
