WEBINAR | Whales 101: Meet the Planet’s Largest Marine Mammals
Dive into the underwater world of whales! Expedition Leader and biologist Andrea Adame introduces us to some of the whale family’s most well-known members, including humpbacks, orcas and gray whales, as well as other cetaceans (marine mammals characterized by their aquatic lifestyle, streamlined body shape and exclusively carnivorous diet) like dolphins and porpoises. You’ll also find out how you can witness gray whales in the wild during their winter migration to Mexico on our Great Gray Whales of Baja adventure!
WEBINAR | Who's Who? How Identifying Individual Animals Can Help Save a Species
Just like human fingerprints, many animals sport unique patterns of coloration, stripes or other features that let us identify them as individuals. Expedition Leader Maria Marcias explains how photo identification is used by conservationists to study and protect marine animals. Learn what identifying individual animals—in particular gray whales—can tell us about a species as a whole, and meet some gray whales that researchers in Baja have monitored for years. Plus, find out how your photos can aid in scientific data collection and conservation efforts!
WEBINAR | Journey to Antarctica: Exploring the White Continent
Antarctica is the ultimate grail for many adventure travelers. Expedition Leader Daniel Stavert shares how we explore the White Continent on two Antarctica offerings: our 17-day Sailing Antarctica: A Polar Wildlife Expedition and 13-day Ultimate Antarctica by Private Expedition Yacht. Tour the ice-worthy vessels we use to ply polar waters, and find out what activities to expect, including Zodiac excursions, kayaking, hiking and encounters with whales, seals, penguins and other wildlife. Get tips on what to pack to stay warm in this extreme environment, and learn what sets these trips apart from other more conventional Antarctica voyages.
