Photo-Identification of Individual Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) Using All Available Natural Marks: Implications for Misidentification and Automated Algorithm Matching Technology

As the ventral-tail fluke catalogues used to study humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) increase in size, the time and cost involved
