Recently our team from Alphonse and Farquhar have completed Marine Mammal Visual Monitoring and Acoustic Training Courses. Where they learnt how to monitor dolphins, whales and other cetaceans , which have been recently sited near the outer islands. The training was held at Marine Conservation Society Seychelles which was directed by Mr Peter Holden who is a Specialist in Marine Mammal Acoustic. After 4 days of intensive training the group is eager and excited to put their training into action when they return to their work on the two islands. ICS is also eager to see the results of this training as we will be receiving more information on these cetaceans.
