Gray Whale Wisdom, Inc. is a 501(c) 3 educational nonprofit organization with the goal of opening hearts and minds to the beauty, grace and intelligence of cetaceans as conscious, communicatingmammals who support life in our oceans and influence our entire biosphere.
We review current global research findings on whale and dolphin intelligence, communication, biology, behavior and habitat. This information is compiled into a comprehensive picture of cetaceans and their marine environment. Multimedia presentations with corresponding educational materials are provided to schools as supplementary science units that meet standardized curriculum requirements for grade school science programs.
With a goal of reaching individuals and groups across the country and around the world, Gray Whale Wisdom is building familiarity with our ocean’s sentient, communicating cetaceans.We provide anextensive picture of the past and current understanding and appreciation of cetaceans and the marine environment to students of all ages.
We believe by exploring the broader concepts of consciousness, regarding cetaceans in particular, we gain a deeper understanding of the world in which we all live. The more aware and educated we are about the beings with whom we share our planet, the better prepared we will be to make conscious choices every day in all aspects of our lives.
Through education and inspiration, Gray Whale Wisdom strives to promote a greater appreciation for the interconnection of all life and a sense of stewardship toward our planet Earth. We have much to learn from these denizens of the sea and they are anxious to teach us!
