A little trip down SouthFor those interested in the trip we did down to Antarctica.
Here is a video that a friend of mine, Dave Scott, put together of our trip down to the ice shelf. The SA Agulhas II is really an amazing vessel and it was an incredible privilege being able to work on it!
Enjoy the video :)

About This Project

Giants of The Sea: Understanding Antarctic Blue Whale Abundance, Distribution and Movement

Mammal Research Institute, Whale Unit, University of Pretoria

Very little is known about Critically Endangered Antarctic blue whales even though they are the largest animals found on our planet. This project aims to increase our knowledge of these animals by establishing how many there are, where they occur and where they move from and to. This knowledge, in collaboration with data from other studies, will contribute towards management decisions regarding the conservation of these animals.
