Description:

These Dwarf and Pygmy Sperm Whale Best Practices highlight general procedures specific to responding to live and dead Kogia spp. Based upon findings from a previous Kogia workshop held in the Southeast United States there are common disease syndromes (e.g., cardiomyopathy) in dwarf and pygmy sperm whales that make rehabilitation of certain age classes of these species extremely difficult. These Best Practices outline the appropriate field response to live dwarf and pygmy sperm whale strandings as well as suggestions for appropriate sampling of euthanized or dead stranded whales.
