Saving Abaco's Dolphins After Hurricane Dorian

By Charlotte Dunn | Project Leader

We recently again retrieved and redeployed our acoustic recorders in the Sea of Abaco that continue to monitor the changes in ambient noise and detect dolphin presence in the area. We are also making plans to spend some time doing dedicated visual surveys in the area for bottlenose dolphins which will enable us to check on the status of their health, visually, as well as document any new calves.

We are contiuing to receive more sightings of dolphins in the area than before hurricane Dorian, however more boats are now using the area, as much needed tourism returns and there is an increase in boat charters.
