Whitby’s decision to replace its whale-bone arch with bronze is progress. But why preserve a monument to whaling at all? History should be remembered honestly - not celebrated through the image of its victims.

The population of humpback whales around the world continues to climb ever higher, as do the records for numbers of sightings in single whale-watching seasons. In Brazil’s renowned Guanabara Bay, whale watching trips are becoming popular thanks to an increase in the population of humpbacks from 2,000 in 1986, to around 35,000 today.

Some guy collected whale poop in his freezer for years before a researcher was interested to study them “Samples of whale feces collected by a man from South Australia have contributed to what is described as a “groundbreaking” study of diets and microbiomes of southern right whales, according to researchers.” https://www.ctvnews.ca/climate-and-environment/article/a-man-collected-whale-poop-from-beach-those-fecal-samples-led-to-a-groundbreaking-study/ #Marine #Science #Whales

GOOD NEWS: Blue and fin whale sightings off Southern Africa have increased in recent years, hinting that these giants may be slowly recovering after being virtually wiped out by 20th‑century whaling. Nature heals when we give it the chance ❤️‍🩹 #protecttheoceans #whales #oceans

"[UPDATE: 11 fin whales have been killed in the last few weeks] They fire explosive harpoons that detonate inside whales' bodies, leaving them to agonise for up to two hours But millionaire Kristján Loftsson has no intention of stopping…147 whales could be slaughtered in the coming weeks, as [his] hunting quota is still in force. Fin whales are capable of communicating through song, feeling love and deep emotional suffering.

Demand that Norway finally put an end to the horrific and outdated whale hunt! The quota for 2026 is 1,641 minke whales. Rather than reassessing the future of this outdated and cruel industry, Norway is choosing to escalate it. #norway #whales #petition https://www.idausa.org/campaign/cetacean-advocacy/latest-news/norways-bloody-whaling-quota-climbs-to-1641-minke-whales/

Hold the Government to its promise! No new #oil and #gas in our seas. Offshore #drilling causes hundreds of toxic spills, deafens #whales, and won't even lower our #EnergyBills. It's time to stop letting #BigOil profit at the expense of our #ocean.
