EAAM: European Association for Aquatic Mammals.
The European Association for Aquatic Mammals abbreviated as “EAAM” was formed as an interest group in 1972 at a meeting in the Netherlands. In August 2012 a non-profit Association, with same name was established, with its head office located in Brussels, Belgium.
The EAAM’s membership includes veterinarians, biologists, zoo and marine park directors and managers, trainers and caretakers, researchers, students and other persons who devote a significant amount of time to the in situ and ex situ welfare and conservation of marine mammals through research, medical care, training, education, conservation, management and related activities.
Main objectives:
Promote the free exchange of knowledge among professionals and institutions to further scientific progress pertaining to research, medical care, training, education, conservation, management and other aspects of aquatic mammals.
- Support and encourage public awareness and education concerning the biology, habitats, threats to wild populations, and programs and measures for the conservation of aquatic mammals.
At Dolphinaris we are proud to be part of this association.
