Whales, Dolphins and Seals – A Field Guide to the Marine Mammals of the World. The Australian Snubfin Dolphin is listed here as a species in it’s own right for the first time, since it was identified in 2005. The book also covers ALL the marine mammals of the world including sea otters, setting it apart from other guides.
This is a beautiful and practical book about some of the most mysterious and captivating creatures on the planet and will appeal to surfers, divers, sailors, scientists, environmentalists, natural history enthusiasts, holiday-makers and anyone living near the coast.
Hadoram Shirihai is a highly-respected authority on the subject, he has seen most of the marine mammals in the book. His hope is that by raising awareness and interest, the book will also be of conservation value.
