The Burrunan dolphin was discovered, described and named in 2011 by the Marine Mammal Foundation’s Founding Director, Dr Kate Robb. Dr Kate’s research has resulted in the Burrunan dolphin being listed as ‘Critically Endangered’ under the Victorian Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act. The formal naming of the Burrunan is just the tip of the iceberg.

The seals are subject to numerous threats, such as entanglements from fishing lines, impacts from rubbish and plastics, boating impacts and other human-induced threats. MMF is working with government organisations to better understand and protect the seals, conducting crucial science which underpins management. Your support helps us conduct this critical research.
