Marine Mammal Science

Marine Mammal Science is the study of marine mammals, such as whales, dolphins, seals, and manatees, focusing on their biology, behavior, ecology, and conservation. Researchers examine how these animals interact with their environment, their social structures, and the impact of human activities on their populations. This field combines aspects of biology, oceanography, and environmental science to promote understanding and protection of marine mammals, ensuring their survival in increasingly threatened habitats. Ultimately, it aims to balance the needs of marine ecosystems with human interests.
