A Natural History of the Gulf of Mexico

The Gulf of Mexico is rich in biodiversity. From Native American communities to today’s industrialized Gulf rich in fossil energy resources, we’ll explore the region’s natural history and current status. Rice’s whale, a species found in the Gulf of Mexico and nowhere else in the world, illustrates our journey of exploration.
