Reseña del editor:

An identification guide and general reference to marine mammal biology, conservation, and governmental protective regulations in Florida. Written by two scientists and pioneers in marine mammal research and conservation, it seeks to inform people how their activities affect marine mammals and what they can do to help safeguard the environment of Florida. John Reynolds and Randall Wells present scientific information, conservation principles, and wildlife protection laws in a way that should be easy for the general reader to follow and understand.
