ORRCA's 2010 Annual Whale Census


It's on again........ORRCA's Annual Whale Census is happening on Sunday 27th June 2010


Bring the family along and enjoy counting whales as they pass the coast. But best of all it's open to everyone to join in and it's FREE !

 

No matter what area or state you live in you are welcome to participate.


The information gathered helps us to obtain a "snapshot" of whale movements and behavior around Australia on that day.

This data is analysed and used for understanding more about these wonderful animals and how we can best protect them, now and into the future.
