Dear MARMAMers I am compiling information on marine or aquatic bushmeat, that is the use of products derived from marine mammals (especially small cetaceans and sirenians) in South and Southeast Asia. These uses include from human consumption and bait to medicinal uses. These products can be obtained through directed (illegal or unregulated) hunts or bycath and strandings. The information collected will be used to write a report, which is as part of a series of reports on the subject of aquatic bushmeat, with the aim to understand the scale of the issue at a global level. The first two have been presented at the IWC Scientific Committee meeting last June in Bled, Slovenia. These will be available soon. Please contact me at orcinus.orca.1758@gmail.com if you have any published or unpublished material (e.g., scientific articles, reports), news, or contact details of people/organisations that could provide me with further information. Thank you in advance, Mel Cosentino -- *A. Mel Cosentino* *"*The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing*" - *E. Burke GNU Terry Pratchett
