Detailed Ecological Assessment Report 2008 – Keti Bunder<br />

• Capacity building of fishermen: Capacity building and orientation of<br />

local fishermen in Keti Bunder regarding cetacean identification,<br />

conservation and management is also needed.<br />

• Information about Pelagic ecosystem: There is a need to collect<br />

information on the pelagic ecosystem around Keti Bunder and its effects<br />

on cetacean population.<br />

• Regular surveys for Cetaceans: Regular surveys of small cetaceans<br />

(dolphins and porpoises) in the creeks should be conducted at least for a<br />

period of two years with the major objectives of recording their<br />

abundance, seasonal distribution pattern and habitat use.<br />

• Dolphin Watch Programme: Dolphins watch programme can also be<br />

initiated with the involvement of local community after their orientation and<br />

training in organizing dolphins watch. This could be an incentive for the<br />

local community regarding income generating activities. This could help<br />

protect the species as well as habitat and resulting in community based<br />

conservation.<br />
