#SpermWhales “Regularly” Toot Gas To Hang Motionless In The #Ocean While They #Sleep
“Because the oils are lighter (less dense) than other parts of the body, this causes sperm whales to passively rotate to the iconic head-up posture that we can see in photographs and observe using animal-attached tags.”
As they sleep, sperm #whales vent gas up to 11 times per rest to maintain neutral buoyancy. They “regularly” release a little air, which allows them to sink down again.

Last night, in International Waters, the Icelandic Coast Guard seized the Bandero, removing the Captain Paul Watson Foundation's conservation vessel from the front lines of Operation 86 after weeks of pursuing Iceland's commercial whaling fleet, conducted by Kristján Loftsson's company, Hvalur hf.
Throughout the campaign, the Bandero was closely monitored by the Icelandic Coast Guard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6MUi-tH_Rs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Lccjb05F9c #whaling #whales #CPWF #WWF #sea #SeaShepherd #climate

End commercial #whaling
In 1982, the IWC agreed to set all commercial catch limits to zero, effectively banning commercial whaling from 1986. Commonly known as the moratorium., the ban remains in place today.Despite the moratorium, the governments of three countries – Japan, Norway and Iceland – chose to allow continued hunting of #whales, killing more than 45,000 whales since 1986.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐋🦴 Chinese scientists piloting the submersible Fendouzhe in the southeast #IndianOcean found fossil sites spanning 1,200 km at depths up to 7,000 m.
The #bones belong mostly to beaked #whales, with the oldest dating back 5.3 million years. Living #jellyfish, brittle stars, and bone-boring #worms still call these ancient carcasses home, allowing whale fall to serve as a #deepsea #ecosystem.

Entanglement is an animal welfare issue- Injuries cause prolonged suffering for whales and dolphins – early intervention is crucial
"Globally, scientists estimate 300,000 whales, dolphins and porpoises are killed each year due to entanglement or incidental capture (bycatch)."
"In one recent Australian case, rescuers removed hundreds of metres of fishing line, hooks, rope and buoys from a young whale whose movement and feeding ability had already been severely compromised."
"Even when animals are successfully disentangled, stress, impaired feeding, chronic pain and severe infection from entanglement injuries may already be irreversible."
"Rescue is not simply whether the animal is cut free from the net but whether the intervention allows full recovery afterwards." >>

i've always despised #bitcoin
but i understand the *concept* of starry eyed #techbros being into #crypto in the 2010s, when it was new and non-bitcoin projects like #ethereum were taking off. i don't buy the #hype, but some did
but now?
they left it, right?
they see it is, and always was, just #degenerates being milked by #whales via #marketManipulation
it's a tax on #stupidity
who is still doing crypto?
oh right: #criminals and #plutocrats and a #cult of #financial patsies
