Abstract
The assumption was made that Cetaceans, both whales and dolphins, are using geomagnetic field of Earth for orientations during migration. Pinnipeds also make long-distance migrations in open seas without apparent reference point. That may be an evidence of magnetic sense in pinnipeds. In this paper we describe development and construction of experimental installation based on Helmholtz coil for gray seal magnetoreception research. A technique of “selection of an object with specified characteristics” is described, adapted for conduction of experiments with pinnipeds.
