We’ve also kicked off the Sea the Value project in conjunction with Plymouth Marine Lab and the University of Aberdeen, and are looking forward to collaborating on this over the next few years– expect to see more information on that coming out in the spring.

Did you know a sperm whale has 40 to 52 cone-shaped teeth, up to 10 to 20cm (4 to 8in) long, in their narrow lower jaws. Each tooth is heavy and weighs as much as one kilogram.

The bottlenose dolphins located in the Moray Firth are a part of the East Coast Population which consists of approximately 190 individuals. They can range between the Moray Firth to the Firths of Tay and Forth but have been seen off the south coast of England as well.

They have been monitored by the University of Aberdeen and the Sea Mammal Research Unit at the University of St Andrews since 1990. They use photo identification of individuals’ dorsal fins and distinct markings; some members of the population have been documented for 30 years.

The dolphins found along the east coast of Scotland are among the biggest bottlenose dolphins in the world measuring up to 4 meters long and weighing up to 400kg due to their extra layers of blubber and shorter extremities to support them in the cold Scottish waters.
