Synopsis:
Porpoises are mysterious animals who spend much of their lives beneath the surface of the oceans. Unlike dolphins, they have a shy disposition and tend to avoid contact with people. Incorporating the latest research and many rare photographs of the world's six species, this book allows an unusual glimpse into their fascinating social lives and complex patterns of behaviour. Drawing on extensive field experience, Andrew Read describes how researchers use sophisticated new tools, such as satellite telemetry and time-depth recorders, to study their intriguing lifestyles. He also looks ahead at some innovative conservations programmes that may help to ensure the existence of these beautiful creatures for future generations.
