PROGRAM BY Amelia Island Whale Ambassadors
Presented by Theresa Hartz, an Amelia Island Whale Ambassadors, who will speak to us about Right Whales which migrate to Amelia Island every winter to give birth and nurture their calves. The AI Whale Ambassadors' goal is to introduce and educate Amelia Islanders about the Right Whale, which are an endangered species. Even though the North Atlantic Right Whale is bigger than a school bus, they are very difficult to see when boating. So, like the turtles, they are an important part of our island culture.
Theresa will discuss the whales, how they get to Amelian island every year and why; why they are endangered; and the Amelia Island Whale Festival and other events that take place each year.
