Keynote speaker Fredrik Christiansen presented impressive work on drones for non-invasive monitoring and calculating bioenergetics of whales around the globe 🐋🌍 🌱
Mia Kronborg, also from Marine Mammal Research @au.dk presented upcoming open-source database for harmonising C-POD data, VALKYRIE 🐬 🌐 🧪

By being large and fat, baleen whales can endure long periods with little or no prey 🌐🌏🧪🌱
We found that:
🐋 A southern right whale in average condition could survive up to 17 months without feeding.
🐋 But a severely entangled North Atlantic right whale may only last about 50 days.
