On the afternoon of April 12th, Life + MarPro was present once more at NEBUA's (Núcleo de Estudantes de Biologia da Universidade do Algarve) talk cycle at the Universidade do Algarve with the presentation "Cetaceans along the Portuguese mainland coast: Species, threats and the importance of local stranding networks".
Future marine/fisheries biologists had the opportunity to learn about the identification of the cetacean species along our coast and other research work conducted by the project´s technical team present in the Algarve. Main subjects discussed were the presentation of MarPro's main actions and objectives, cetacean dead stranding monitoring, cetacean diet analysis as a tool to provide a more ecosystem based fisheries management approach and interactions of cetaceans with Portuguese fisheries.
