Dall/Harbour Porpoise Hybrid


Dall/Harbour Porpoise Hybrid
Originally uploaded by Jeff Lorton.
Two young Hybrid porpoises we encountered 1.75 miles north of Beaumont Shoals.
The Young animals were together with 5-6 dall adults. One of the two hybrids was a littler larger (not Pictured) and was known to Ron Bates of MMRG by it's unique dorsal shading. Read More on this facinating interaction http://whitelab.biology.dal.ca/rwb/hybrid.htm
