[MARMAM] ACS: beaked whale issue dedicated to John Heyning

[Uko Gorter]

Special beaked whale issue of ACS Whalewatcher honoring John Heyning.

The American Cetacean Society has just published a special issue of our 
journal “Whalewatcher”.  This unique full color issue is completely 
devoted to beaked whales and honors the late John Heyning.
John had a keen fascination for beaked whales, and has contributed much 
to our knowledge of these enigmatic whales, as well as marine mammal 
science in general.
John was also a great friend and supporter of the American Cetacean 
Society.
We hope that this special issue serves as a fitting tribute to an 
extraordinary man.

ACS would like to take the opportunity to thank all contributors to 
this issue.
The editors: Mason Weinrich, Bernardo Alps, Kaye Reznick, Uko Gorter.
