WHAT EVER HAPPENED?

What ever happened to this beautiful Humpback Whale off of the coast of Antarctica? His tail appears to have been damaged by something, perhaps a ship strike? What used to be a rare phenomenon is now much more common. Whales can be killed or maimed and left to starve to death because it is unable to dive and search for food.. There have been many solutions proposed, but we need to take action now in order to safe these vulnerable giants.

Humpback whaleship strike

  • One of the more curious and inquisitive marine mammal in the ocean, this sea lion was unfortunate enough to have a rubber belt get stuck around his neck. As this animal grows, the ring will eventually become so tight that this animal will die without human intervention.
