"What's Killing Blue Whales? (Mazdak.de)"


A multi-national group of five underwater sea divers named "Team Awesome" traveled to Sri Lanka to film Blue Whales. Within in their first two days they discovered a Blue Whale and multiple Sperm Whales; but during their third day at sea; they discovered an awful sight: a dead Blue Whale. The whale, had been struck by a super tank towards it's rear fin and died! In Sri Lanka alone this year; six Blue Whales have been found dead... the Blue Whale is an endangered species and cannot take much more of these accidental collisions. Here in the U.S., shipping lanes have been moved out further into sea to avoid these accidents. But there is still some work to be done! ALSO CHECK OUT
