The fate of whales is linked to the value that we place on them. Getting to know them is the best guarantee for their future. Founded in 1985 and based in Tadoussac, GREMM is dedicated to scientific research on the whales of the St. Lawrence River and to education aimed at conserving their habitat.
Whales have complex social lives and life expectancies comparable to our own. To better understand them, GREMM relies on decades-long research, cutting-edge technologies and a vast network of multidisciplinary collaborators.
Whales are fascinating. Cultivating and perpetuating this centuries-old fascination is what drives our team. GREMM represents the crossroads of research and education. We study whales so we can share their stories.
GREMM coordinates the Quebec Marine Mammal Emergency Response Network to help animals in distress and gather vital scientific data from carcasses. QMMERN is made up of 14 organizations, and its teams are ready to deploy 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.
