The Role of National Marine Sanctuaries in Protecting Whales and Benefits from that Protection

Dr. Lisa Wooninck became Superintendent of Monterey Bay National Marine in November 2021.  Prior to that she was policy coordinator for the five sanctuaries on the west coast and a fishery biologist at the NOAA Fisheries Lab in Santa Cruz.

Her talk will describe 30 years of whale conservation across the National Marine Sanctuary System and how protecting whales and increasing their populations also has benefits to humans.
