Shane Gero | The Dominica Sperm Whale Project

June 11th @ 2:00pm eastern

Shane's research focuses on the acoustic complexity and social behavior of the whales. For over a decade, he has been working on research projects all over the world on various whale species in tropical, temperate and arctic areas. The Dominica Sperm Whale Project has been tracking over 20 families of sperm whales in the Caribbean Sea since 2005. Through 1000s of hours of fieldwork, he has followed calves from birth through weaning and described the social dynamics among family members, as well as between the families in the Caribbean. Learn about the whales and the techniques he uses to tag and track these amazing marine mammals, and take a peek into their underwater world.
