• Zoos, Conservation and Education

At AMMRC we aim to promote the conservation of marine mammals and their environment by:

• increasing biological knowledge,
• monitoring selected marine mammal populations, and
• increasing public awareness by positive, conservation-based education programmes. 

AMMRC was established in 1996 as a co-operative centre of the University of Sydney and the Zoological Parks Board of New South Wales.

Our group of researchers, behavioural ecologists and veterinarians, have experience working with:

• Seals of the Antarctic pack ice,
• Seal and cetacean populations in Australian waters, and
• Comparing southern and northern hemisphere endangered populations of cetaceans.
