Dear Marmamers
On behalf of the Northern Indian Ocean Killer Whale Alliance, I am pleased to announce that a live on-screen version of the NIO Killer Whale ID Catalogue is now available and can be viewed at this link. http://niokillerwhales.wix.com/niokwa Both the ID Catalogue and sightings repository are the result of an extensive collaborative effort by the individuals and organizations that make up the Northern Indian Ocean Killer Whale Alliance (NIOKWA). Though only in the early stages, the catalogue already hosts 51 unique individuals made up of 15 pods and 4 suspected lone animals. Exciting results so far have revealed localised re-sightings, insights into regional seasonality and the first record of trans-Indian Ocean movement. As the catalogue is live, it will be updated as and when new individuals are identified. Periodic updates will be circulated to a mailing list of NIOKWA members, to be included in this list please contact myself at [email protected]. All the best Georgina -- *Georgina Gemmell* Lead Administrator, Orca Project Sri Lanka
