During August 2007, Ketos Ecology carried out a survey in the Minch (situated between Lewis and the west Scottish mainland), with the aim of monitoring the occurrence of white-beaked dolphins and collecting information on their distribution, biology and ecology.  The survey successfully located white-beaked dolphins and additionally recorded four other cetacean species in the Minch.  Please select one of the links below for information on the project.
