A Dive into Dolphin Science
Ever wondered how scientists tell dolphins apart or track them in the wild? Now’s your chance to dive into the science behind dolphin research!
In this engaging, hands-on one-hour workshop, you’ll discover how scientists use fin identification to recognise individual dolphins and apply mark-recapture techniques to estimate populations and monitor these incredible marine mammals.
Led by a local dolphin scientist, this session is ideal for secondary students who love science, marine biology, and cetaceans (whales and dolphins). It’s also an excellent introduction to the Cetacean Sisters program, designed for secondary school girls who are interested in learning more about science through whales and dolphin research.
During the workshop, you’ll
· learn how scientists track and study dolphins,
· explore real research techniques, and
· Get inspired by a career in science or marine research
All session dates are posted on our Humanitix page – bookings and payments can be made through the same platform.
