CAPTIVE DATABASES

Welcome to the Ceta-Base!

UPDATES: Feb 7th, 2010 - check Site Updates page!

This database serves as an online inventory of marine mammals around the world with each database organized by species. Within each species database there are three categories - Living Population, Deceased Population and Historical Population. By default each inventory will start out on the Living Population of animals, basically the current captive animals. If you're interested in animals that have passed on you'll want to look at the Deceased Population for each species. Finally, the Historical Population will combine both the Living and Deceased animals to provide a more complete look at animals held in captivity throughout the years.

The most recent changes to the database are noted below.
