========================================================================= Date: Mon, 14 Nov 1994 20:38:15 -0800 From: "Christopher D. Malcolm" Subject: suction-cup tagging success/attempt ratios I would be interested in finding out from other researchers who do suction-cup tagging (TDR and VHF) your successful attachment to number of attempts ratio. I am particularly interested in gray whales as that is the species I am presently working with, however I would like to find out this ratio for all species. If you could tell me where you are doing your work that would also be helpful. For those interested I can tabulate all the responses I get and report them back to you. I am interested in both crossbow and pole attachment techniques. You may respond to me at ChristopherD._Malcolm(\)bc.sympatico.ca (this address is case sensitive and needs the _ as well!). Thank you very much!! Chris Malcolm Dept. of Geography University of Victoria Victoria, British Columbia
