I’ve just completed Day 1 of the SeaVet intensive training course. We covered water quality for marine mammals as compared to fishes presented by Dr Ruth Francis-Floyd (pictured with me below). There were in-depth presentations on the effect of air quality on the health of Cetaceans, and on their anatomy, behaviour and medicine. This was delivered by Dr Mike Walsh who is kind enough to help fast track the attendees with what took him over 20 years to gather.
There was a lot to take in because tomorrow, we will be taking a field trip to Marineland to observe and interact with the dolphins.
This fact-finding trip has been made possible by the George Alexander International Fellowship, awarded to me by the International Specialised Skills Institute.
