On behalf of my co-authors, I am pleased to announce the recent publication of our book about the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale:
Disappearing Giants: The North Atlantic Right Whale
Scott Kraus,
Marilyn Marx, Heather Pettis, Amy Knowlton, Ken Mallory
Publisher: Fitzhenry and Whiteside, Markham, ON
Paperback/140 pages
Disappearing Giants tells the story of one of the most endangered large whales in the oceans today, from the whaling history for which
it is named, to the most up-to-date research efforts and population status. Illustrated throughout with beautiful photos, it describes how individual right whales are identified, how they feed, migrate, and face the challenges
of life in the industrialized North Atlantic Ocean. The authors, long-time right whale researchers from the Anderson Cabot Center for Ocean Life at New England Aquarium in Boston, hope this book will bring awareness to
this wondrous but threatened whale species and the tremendous efforts being taken to help North Atlantic right whales
avoid extinction and thrive far into the future.
