NatureScot Commissioned Report 512: Site Condition Monitoring of bottlenose dolphins within the Moray Firth Special Area of Conservation 2008-2010
The Moray Firth Special Area of Conservation (SAC) is one of two UK areas that have been proposed as part of the Natura 2000 series for bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus). The SAC extends from the inner firths to Helmsdale on the north coast and Lossiemouth on the south coast and includes areas that are regularly used by the population of bottlenose dolphins occurring along the east coast of Scotland. NatureScot has a responsibility to report on the condition of bottlenose dolphins within the Moray Firth SAC every six years.
