Visit Naomi, Exhibitor Booth 4 at #SMM2024 to talk whale watching & all things IWC. Demo the online Whale Watching Handbook & learn about the Commission's many #cetaceanscience & #cetaceanconservation initiatives. Huge thanks to the AWI awionline.org for their generous sponsorship.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by my poster at #SMM2024 last night—I loved meeting you all and loved getting to chat about killer whales! It was such a lovely experience!
Hey, #SMM2024 speakers whose first language is English, I know you might be nervous but can I ask you to please slow down a bit 🙏. Let’s make it easier for those who come from a non-English speaking country!
