Here's a really cool volunteer project that takes place in Costa Rica. Three organizations, PRETOMA (CR), Vida Marina (CR), and Peoples Trust for Endangered Species (UK) are seeking divers to take photos of whale sharks, as well as collect basic data such as the location and water temperature at place of sighting. The photos and data will be added to a global database of whale sharks. Contact Randall Arauz via phone at: +(506) 236-0886 or fax at +(506) 236-6017. Or email. More about the project here.
