dolphin studies

Description :-

Dolphins are extraordinary…intelligent, playful, social and complex. Learn about these amazing creatures up close as you track them through the beautiful offshore cayes of Belize. With expert researchers as your guides, observe dolphins in their natural habitats and gather data that contributes to ongoing research projects. Learn to identify individuals and analyze their behavior. Belize is the ideal place to study wild bottlenose dolphins because of the varied habitats of sea grass beds, mangroves and coral reefs to which dolphins are drawn. Our host, The Oceanic Society, has spent years identifying dolphin hot spots and cataloguing local resident dolphins. Your contributions to their research will help their efforts to protect these great creatures and create a marine s anctuary. When not searching for dolphins, scuba dive to discover Belize’s world famous reefs and extraordinary abundance of marine life.
