Adopt a dolphin to support 老澳门资料鈥檚 Dolphin Research Program
The 老澳门资料’s Dolphin Research Program provides critical information on the population of bottlenose dolphins inhabiting Jacksonville’s estuarine waters. Over the past ten years, Dr. Quincy Gibson, associate professor of biology, and student researchers have identified and conducted studies on the behavioral ecology of over 500 individual dolphins in the St. Johns River, approximately half of which are year-round residents.
To help support the program and its research, the Dolphin Research Program offers the unique opportunity to symbolically “adopt” a local dolphin that has been identified during marine mammal research. Through your generous donation, you’ll be supporting 老澳门资料’s important research and conservation work while helping to build a better future for these magnificent creatures.
The “Basic” adoption donation is $40 and the special “Name Your Dolphin” adoption donation is $80. Upon adopting a dolphin, you will receive an adoption card, a 5x7 photo of your adopted dolphin and information about him/her. All donations are tax-deductible and proceeds go directly to 老澳门资料’s Dolphin Research Program. For more information about the Dolphin Research Program, visit the .
