Gray whale abundance in Laguna San Ignacio is up for second year in a row! Check out the details about abundance, acoustics, sea grass ecology and school education…all the good work done by Laguna San Ignacio Ecosystem Science Program. http://lsiecosystem.org/ Consider a donation if you loved your visit to San Ignacio.








Synopsis from naturalist Rob N. about the acoustic research:
“Gray whales produce a variety of vocalizations while in the lagoon (none of which are echolocation sounds, since baleen whales do NOT echolocate). Unfortunately, the number of vocalizations recorded in the lagoon in a given time does not help with census surveys, since the quantity of vocalizations is more a function of social context rather than simply the number of whales.”
