Yesterday we found what we had hoped not to: five dead dolphins, floating in the vicinity of two sets of pair trawlers. The five adult dolphins had obviously been trapped in the net and drowned in the struggle to escape. All of the animals had cuts to their beaks, fins and flippers. A piece of net was also discovered near the carcasses.<... [More] Full Details  | Visit  | Review  | Rate (0)  | 2008/07/04  | 116 visits Ecology and conservation of common bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus in the Mediterranean Sea Top \ Marine Conservation Bearzi G., Fortuna C.M., Reeves R.R. 2009.

Yet we are now seeing disquieting signs that conventional wisdom is wrong. Most significantly, scientists are reporting ocean predators emaciated from lack of food, vulnerable to disease and without enough energy to reproduce. Scrawny predators, dolphins, striped bass, and even whales have turned up along coastlines around the world.

But in southern Iraq, in the waterway leading to the port of Umm Qasr and in the harbor of Bahrain, the more ancient and precise work of marine mammals is under way. Dolphins are using their natural sonar to detect mines in the water near Umm Qasr. And in Bahrain, sea lions are guarding boats and piers from potentially threatening swimmers...

The animals are becoming restless. Polar bears and penguins, dolphins and dingoes, even birds in the rainforest are becoming stressed. They are losing weight, with some dying as a result. The cause is a pursuit intended to have the opposite effect: ecotourism. The massive growth of the ecotourist industry has biologists worried. Evidence is growing that many animals do not react well t... [More] Full Details  | Visit  | Review  | Rate (0)  | 2008/07/03  | 93 visits Pythagoras - Cetacean Theodolite Tracking Top \ Marine Life Research The program interfaces with a digital theodolite and provides a dynamic and user-friendly interface.

In the 1960s, it was O’Barry who captured and trained the 5 dolphins who played the title character in the international television sensation “Flipper.” But his close relationship with those dolphins – the very dolphins who sparked a global fascination with trained sea mammals that continues to this day led O’... [More] Full Details  | Visit  | Review  | Rate (0)  | 2009/08/23  | 61 visits The Marine Mammal Center Top \ Marine Conservation Since 1975, over 12,000 animals, such as elephant seals, sea lions, sea otters, harbor seals, fur seals, dolphins, harbor porpoises and the like, have been rescued and treated at our hospital facility.

The Whale and Dolphin Stranding Scheme at the Natural History Museum blames an increase in fishing activity, which it says leads to more "by-catch". This can occur when dolphins or whales chase fish into giant nets, where they then get entangled in the gear.
