Dear All, Many thanks for all the requests for details and specimens regarding the beaked whale. The specimen was in poor condition and nothing other than skin tissue was possible, the land owner will keep the entire skeleton for tourism. My apologies if I did not respond to all the mail but some were simply not viable suggestions due to the reasons above. Those who are helping with genetics and ID I thank again and will be in touch shortly. Best regards, Oli Yates. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------- Oli Yates Project Leader Albatross and Petrel Programme Falklands Conservation Stanley Falkland Islands Tel: 00 500 22247 Fax: 00 500 22288 oli.yates@conservation.org.fk
