Cetacean Society International

CSI Navigation Menu

Welcome to Cetacean Society International. CSI is an all-volunteer, non-profit, tax-exempt conservation, education, and research organization with representatives in over 25 countries. Our goal is the "optimum utilization of cetacean resources," as called for in the 1946 Treaty of the International Whaling Commission, through the protection of viable habitat and the cessation of all killing and captive display of whales, dolphins, and porpoises. We support and promote benign activities such as regulated whale-watching, non-lethal and humane research, and widespread educational, environmental and observation programs relating to free-roaming cetaceans internationally. Our ultimate objective is the global acceptance of peaceful coexistence and mutual enrichment for both humans and cetaceans.
