2022: Building Up Our Science Program

Dear Friends,

With your help, Sea Shepherd is kicking off 2022 by expanding our science and conservation work globally.

Say hello to our new Director of Science, Dr. John Payne, PhD who will be partnering with committed, passionate people all over the world to bring world-class science to our global mission to protect marine wildlife. John is an ecologist with field experience in marine and terrestrial environments in Latin America, Africa, and Asia, and he specializes in population modeling, animal telemetry, and AI modeling.

Our Science program is already working with Ship Operations and Conservation to plan joint campaigns to stop illegal fishing and protect our precious marine ecosystems, while also helping to sustain research and local conservation efforts.

And now with Dr. Payne on board, 2022 will be an exciting year for Sea Shepherd Science! DONATE NOW and your support will allow research vessels like Martin Sheen to work off the Pacific Coast of Mexico for the 7th year in a row, with expeditions to the biologically important Guadalupe Island and Revillagigedo Islands Marine Protected Areas. A second survey of endangered Amazonian dolphins is planned in the spring by Sea Shepherd Brazil, and Italian researchers are aiming to publish the latest work from the Operation Siso Campaign in the Mediterranean, which removed illegal fish aggregating devices. Dr. Payne will be growing a scientific network to help plan research on other Sea Shepherd ships and in many locations, including the Caribbean and West Africa.

All of this work is made possible by your generosity and shared commitment to protecting marine wildlife. If you haven’t already done so, we ask that you to please consider including Sea Shepherd in your end-of-year giving so our ships, scientists, and crew can protect as many species as possible!

For the ocean,

Captains, Crew and Sea Shepherd Staff
