Visit our Program webpage for current information about the North Atlantic Right Whale Program.
The Marine Resources Council's Right Whale Monitoring Program was established in 1995 to reduce human impacts to the endangered North Atlantic right whale. Citizens on the east coast of Florida report land‑based sightings of right whales to our hotline (1‑888‑97‑WHALE). This information is passed on to local ship traffic to avoid ship strikes, which account for over one‑third of documented right whale deaths in the North Atlantic Ocean.

Julie and I are excited to be heading up to Jacksonville very shortly for the Right Whale Festival tomorrow! Hope to see some of you all there!
