Melbourne's very own dolphin

Sunday, 28 May 2023 - 11:30am to 12:00pm
Burrunan Dolphin

If you've been out on Port Phillip Bay and seen a grey dolphin, you might have seen Melbourne's own unique species of dolphin - the Burrunan Dolphin! Only recognised in 2011, Burrunan Dolphins live in Port Phillip Bay, the Gippsland Lakes and waters around Tasmania.

To learn more about this wonderful creature, and the efforts to protect them, we speak to Dr Kate Robb from the Marine Mammal Foundation, and Grace Day, a PhD candidate at Deakin University.
