Dear MARMAMMER¹s, WDCS is kindly asking for your help as we are compiling a comprehensive online species guide that will include up to 5 quality images of each species alive and at sea - although we appreciate that for several species, like for example many of the beaked whales, this will not be possible. Unfortunately we are falling short of being able to source all the images that we need or are looking for better ones and/or additional ones that best showcase cetaceans and would assist in easy identification of the animal. As and when you would get the chance can we ask you to have a trawl through your photos and see if you can fill in any of the blanks. All photographers will be credited and images will NOT be used for any other purpose, unless authorised to do so by the photographer.
A list of species for which we need images follows and all and any help will be greatly appreciated! If you can help then please respond to me directly ([email protected]) to arrange transfer of files!
