Education

Conservation Starts with Education

That's why community outreach and education programs are a big part of our mission at Gotham Whale. We strive to be a digital and real-world resource on all things marine mammal for the New York Bight. Join us and learn more about the wildlife that calls the New York Bight home!

Meet the Marine Mammals

You may be surprised by just how many species of whales, dolphins, and seals can be found across New York and New Jersey. We may be best known for Humpback Whales, but the diversity certainly doesn't stop there.

Boating With Whales

Whale sightings are no longer rare in the New York Bight. But with more whales comes more challenges for those on the water. A new course is helping boat captains stay safe while protecting their vessel, their crew, and the whales.

In-Classroom Education Programs

Bring the magic of marine mammal science into the classroom with Gotham Whale and New York Nature Mobile's curriculum-based programming.
