Salmonid passive integrated transponder tags and coded wire tags found in the forestomach of a harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) in southwestern Washington
A dead adult harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) was found on the Long Beach Peninsula in Washington on 22 August 2012. The harbor porpoise was skeletonized, with the forestomach being the only organ that remained. The forestomach contained 5 passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags and 91 coded wi...
