The key species for this citizen science project are humpback and southern right whales but can also include other species such as killer, minke and blue whales (also occasionally seen locally).
Reporting your sightings of whales and dolphins is an important way that you can help conservation outcomes in Victorian waters. We lead several important citizen science projects aimed at improving our understanding of cetaceans in our region and the issues they face.Our programs, especially the Two Bays Whale Project, are carefully designed so sightings are validated to ensure that data are reliable. We are interested in receiving sightings from all Victorian Waters, including the Gippsland Lakes, but have a strong focus on the central Two Bays region.
