The team arrived in Monkey Mia on the 3rd June for a three month stint in the field; collecting data on the vocal behaviour of the Shark Bay male alliances. We have already seen lots of familiar fins, have observed our first consortships of the season and have recorded some great whistle exchanges (a priority for this year) - watch this space for more news as the season progresses!
