As marine sentinels, aihe (dolphins) reflect the state of the environment. From rare dental anomalies to skin lesions which offer insight to animal health, strandings continually offer new perspectives to NZ taonga species @NatSciMassey, #CetaceanEcologyRearchGroup

Concerning drone footage of this pod was circulating yesterday before they stranded. It showed the pod forming a tight group, just 100m from shore and many whales spy hopping... All indicators of distress. Our thoughts are with the teams responding today.

Today we pay tribute to Roger Payne who passed away on Sunday A brilliant whale researcher & conservationist whos discovery that whales sing changed the world. His early recordings of whale songs spurred a new appreciation marine mammals & sparked the "save the whales" movement

So sad to hear of the passing of WDC friend and whale champion extraordinaire Roger Payne. Roger's recordings of humpback whale songs were the soundtrack of the Save the Whale movement. They made people realize there are intelligences other than ours on this beautiful planet.

The great Roger Payne has passed. I was able to speak with him and bid farewell. Five days prior, when he knew his end was coming, he published this recollection to help us find our way forward.
