At the invitation of the European Association for Aquatic Mammals (EAAM), the Board of the Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks and Aquariums has agreed that the Alliance will become a co-sponsor of Aquatic Mammals, the oldest international scientific, peer-reviewed marine mammal journal. It has been supported by the EAAM since 1972. Aquatic Mammals accepts a wide variety of papers on the care, conservation, medicine, and science of marine mammals. The number of papers submitted for review has risen dramatically in recent years, and, in response, the journal increased its annual issues from three to four in 2005. Dr. Jeanette Thomas of Western Illinois University is the editor and Kathleen Dudzinski of Mystic Aquarium the co-editor. Dan Odell of the Alliance has agreed to join the publications editorial board. Subscription information can be found on the journals Web site, which is at: http://www.wiu.edu/users/aquamamm/index/home.htm.
