The Friends of the Dolphin Program
Working with the community to compile dolphin sightings and support cooperative research projects, the Pacific Marinelife Institute's Friends of the Dolphin program aims to develop a multimedia database on the dolphin populations of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Combining long term tracking of specific populations with expeditions, volunteer observer programs and community education, the Institute aim to support monitor the health of the region's dolphin populations.
