The presence of crater-like wounds on cetaceans and other large marine vertebrates and invertebrates has been attributed to various organisms. We review the evidence for the identity of the biting agent responsible for crater wounds on large whales,

Although humpback whales are among the best-studied of the large whales, population boundaries in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) have remained largely untested. We assess population structure of SH humpback whales using 1,527 samples collected from wha

Aerial counts of right whale cow-calf pairs on the south coast of South Africa between 1971 and 1998 indicate an annual instantaneouspopulation increase rate of 0.068 per year (SE = 0.004) over this period. Annual photographic surveys since 1979 have

Southern right whales were originally abundant in Namibian waters in winter and spring. They were either eradicated from the region ordriven to extremely low numbers more than a century ago. Since 1971, 36 incidental sightings and three aerial survey

As species recover from exploitation, continued assessments of connectivity and population structure are warranted to provide information for conservation and management. This is particularly true in species with high dispersal capacity, such as migr
