New collaborative paper involving our lab! Thanks to the amazing students and colleagues for their work on this sensitive issue
Whale meat consumption in the Caribbean: a potential risk for public health? Our latest paper was just published https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10807039.2020.1870865
Absolutely amazing... For a few years now we were referring to Bryde's whales to the animals we have been studying in the Gulf of Mexico... However, we have actually been working on something totally different. Here is the Rice's whale (Balaenoptera rice) https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/mms.12776
The 24th Biennial Conference on the Biology of Marine Mammals will be held in West Palm Beach , USA - December 13-17, 2021. It will be the first hybrid SMM conference! Registrations are now open! https://www.smmconference.org
@FIUCASE just released a call for Distinguished Postdoctoral Scholars (Job ID: 522492). If you are looking for a postdoc, if you are a member of an underrepresented group in STEM, and of course if you want to join my lab @ecology_lab, please contact me! @marinemammalogy
More nice coverage of beaked whale diving from BBC science

SE coast of Florida as a possible nursery ground for manta ray published in @ESR_IR by @MarineMegafauna. We have a lot to learn about these animals in our coastal waters! I am baffled to see so many of them close to the beach https://www.int-res.com/articles/esr2020/43/n043p051.pdf
Reflecting this part year... after a year of existence, this is our lab and our work! Enjoy 😊 @FIUEnvironment @FIUCASE @jjkiszka
Sharing is good. Learn to share from the rough-toothed #dolphins of #Mexico in our newest #publication in Marine Mammal Science. From a small #drone, we watched them pass a fish back and forth! @ecology_lab @jjkiszka @whalesguerrero https://rb.gy/qkn3ac (a thread)
Dolphins share food! In our paper published today in Marine Mammal Science @marinemammalogy led by @EricAngelRamos we describe food sharing in rough-toothed dolphins off Mexico using drone footages @whalesguerrero @ecology_lab https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mms.12727 @FIUCASE
