The WWKWD is a multiyear-long passion project of mine! I've always wanted to make published information more concise and easy to find and building a website was the best way I could do it! This project was started sometime around 2014/15, on PowerPoint presentation slides, but was officially moved over to a big spreadsheet in 2019 after a few years of hiatus. In 2020, I decided to start this website and, as of 2023, I have uploaded more than 1700 individuals!
I go by Blue when online, so I ask that that's what you refer to me as! I am a Junior at university studying Marine Biology! I have long-term goals to study cetacean populations using photo identification. I have previously done research on a Harbor Porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) population in my area using photo identification. I then presented my research at a local undergrad research event as my senior year thesis.
