*if you are interested in attending our June course, please book by Friday 17th June* We're pleased to be offering two more short courses on whale & dolphin survey techniques covering: . general biology & classification of cetaceans . species identification . conservation issues facing UK cetaceans . recommended monitoring survey methods The practical element of the course will combine both land and boat-based surveys, allowing participants to directly learn how to conduct systematic watches and fill in standardised recording forms. These take place on June 25th/26th and September 10th/11th in New Quay, West Wales, UK and will provide an unparalleled opportunity to see marine mammals in the wild and to contribute to cetacean conservation in Britain.
