When Whales Come to Visit
Laura Torre-Williams gave a presentation at the Society of Marine Mammalogy Conference about a 6 year mugging study in the Gold Coast Bay. Researchers Laura-Torre Williams and Wen Hou gave a talk about the fascinating behaviour of mugging, and offered some interesting facts about these events.

The Forgotten Shore Whaling Station
Targeted by whaling stations, the once abundant humpback whale population in the Hauraki Gulf suffered population collapse, and is still trying to recover to this day.
