One quarter of all whale, dolphin and porpoise species, collectively known as cetaceans, have been seen in Scottish waters. As Director of the Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust, Alison's job is to find out more more them: where they live, how many there are, and what needs to be done to protect them.
