Massive Bryde's Whale skeleton attracts crowds at CMFRI open house, highlighting marine conservation efforts and research works.
Display of a massive skeleton of Bryde’s Whale became a centre of attraction for large crowds at the open house held at ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) on Monday as part of its 78th Foundation Day celebrations.
The event also offered a fascinating glimpse into the wonders of marine life, with conservation efforts of marine mammals and other endangered species getting particular attention. The exhibition turned out to be a powerful visual aid to create public awareness of whale standings and CMFRI’s ongoing research works on stock assessment of marine mammals in Indian waters, according to a press release here.
Aimed at conveying the message of conservation, illustrated stickers of 19 protected species such as whale shark, Humphead Wrasse, and sea horse were distributed among the students.
