Join us to hear Dr. Holly Fearnbach’s update on SR3’s killer whale health research. Holly and her colleagues have pioneered the use of remotely controlled multi-copter drones to study the health of free-ranging whales and dolphins. Holly's talk will focus on her health assessment research which uses drone-derived aerial photographs to monitor the growth and body condition of several populations of killer whales including salmon-eating Southern, Northern and Alaska Resident killer whales, Bigg's mammal-eating "transient" killer whales, and several ecotypes of killer whales in Antarctica. A huge thank you to Patagonia Seattle for sponsoring this presentation in celebration of Orca Month. Don't miss your chance to win some awesome raffle prizes during the talk.
