A portion of the Happywhale data were transferred to OBIS-SEAMAP upon the agreement between Happywhale and OBIS-SEAMAP. There may be duplicate records among Happywhale datasets and other OBIS-SEAMAP datasets. The precision of date/time vary per record. Some records have date accuracy up to year only. This dataset includes sightings and photos from the following 131 contributors in alphabetic order: Abhilash Khare; Alex Lamoreaux; Alicia Del Toro; Allie Smith; Alvaro Jaramillo; Amanda Colbert; Amanda Urena; Andrew Loyd Smith; August Andrews; Avery Fretwell; Becky O'Neill; Ben Hagler; Bonnie Furman; Bradley Vanston; Brian Gibbs; Bruce Weyermann; Carey Bergman; Charlie Pingree; Chelsea Bradley; Chestina; Christian Harvey; Colette English; Colleen Talty; Craig Emery; Dale Frink; Dane McDermott; Daniel Bianchetta; David Bailey; David Beeninga; David Brown; Deirdre Doyle; Delaney Trowbridge; Doug Cheeseman - †; Douglas Croft; Eleanor Kotler; Elizabeth; Elizabeth Robinson; Emily Tate; Era Horton; Eric Austin Yee; Erich Starzinger; Erin T.; Evan Brodsky; Faith Goodlow; Fiadh McCaffery; Gail Koza; Gerard Menut; Gordon Gates; Hadley Gross; Ian Bullock; Isabel; jackie schwiesow; James Moskito; Jamie Lee Peterson; Jeff Fairbanks; Jennifer Stoudt; Jeremy Hathaway; Joe Meuleman; Johanna Domise; John Collas; Josh; Joshua Meza-Fidalgo; Kate Pennington; Kate Spencer; Katherine E.; Kathleen White; Keith Grundy; Ken Schultz; Kirsten MacTaggart; Kourtney Burger; Krystal Nguyen; Laura Lopez; Lauren Reid; Lee Harris; Leigh Anderson; Leslie Rapp; Lisa Boyle; Logan Pallin; Lory Barra; Lynn Rogers; Mallory Emerson; Marilia Olio; Mark Girardeau; Mark OBrien; Martina Bartolini; Maryjanna Drummond; Mason Donny; Max Block; Maxim Cheeran; McKenna Miller; Megan Hillyer; Megan Ireland; Mella Re; mengti yang; Michael Pierson; Molly Batts; Monika Wieland Shields; Morgan Quimby; Mya; Nico Heyning; Nicola Manu; Nina Moysi; Oksana Savenko; Paige Siegel; Patrick Chauvet; Peter Bedrossian; Peter Ray; Rebecca Malkewicz; R.J.
