This page is going to look a little sparse for the time being. . In the future we hope to have more statistical analysis based on a variety of parameters but that requires a lot of data crunching and the set just isn't ready yet - there's a lot of cross referencing and proof reading required for the initial data set, but once that's ready it will be smooth sailing. Just to give you an example of the amount of information we're dealing with, the living population of dolphins in North America and Canda consists of 461 individuals (excluding Killer Whales and Belugas). If you take into account the Historical Record - all dolphins living or dead, exhibited since the 1940's you're talking well over 1,000 individuals in North America and Canada alone. Then add into that demographics like ages, genders, sires and dams and it gets a little crazy. For now we're going to put together some demographic information and a few charts with a "Top 10" theme. Enjoy.
