WORDS FROM THE RESEARCHER

"Citizen science can play a key role in monitoring endangered species, such as
the Steller sea lion."

ABOUT KILLER WHALE COUNT

Welcome, fellow science lovers!

Killer whale count is part of a collaborative PhD project between the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the University of Canterbury
in New Zealand.

We need your help in identifying and counting killer whales in images taken at
Steller sea lion colonies around the Aleutian Islands. Steller sea lions in the
western region are endangered, but more research is needed on to understand
threats to their population. This project is aimed at better understanding one
potential threat; killer whale predation.
