Lol, i bet it like stumbing ur toe poor whales RIP

You could say the same about humans that get run over.....

@@lukeellis758 Thats just a silly comparison. The oceans are vast and whales have exceptional hearing underwater. Its not like the cargo ships appear out of nowhere with blazing fast speeds, they both have about equal top speeds. Also from one study : ''The whales were affected up to 3km away, at sound levels over 140 dB, and deviated from their path by about 500m''. I found out container ships make up to 198 dB, so im not sure why these whales dont deviate. 🤔

@@TheRed4123 The difference is information. even the most intelligent of humans can make grave mistakes out of ignorance. just because you have the mental capacity to learn doesn't mean you automatically know everything. A person raised all their life in a basement or something wouldn't automatically know the dangers of vehicles, or say electricity, a curious mind might just decide to stick a fork in an outlet. They wouldn't be stupid for doing it unless they had reason to believe it was dangerous. As for a whale, may have spent it's entire life being the biggest baddest mofo in the ocean, that NOTHING fucks with, can go wherever whenever. and comes across a cruise ship for the first time. It already has bad eye sight and propellers spin so fast you don't see them and YOU only know it's there because YOU know it's there, the Whale can feel like it dodged the ship and swam through the propeller blades it never saw, and never knew existed. If it survived that encounter, chances are it never does it again, because then and only then would it have had reason to know and learn about it's danger. Most cases there isn't a 2nd time, only a 1st.

You do realise you can’t stop a shit at night or decrease the speed limit. That’s really not how it works,

I think they have data, but very limited because they told in video, it's hard to collect exact data for further research, even to count how many whales that dies because of ships they cannot get the exact number. This is a very complicated problem, But if we act only when we get all data , maybe it's too late to save whales.

@@calvingunarto7865 :-) Hey did you know that it causes cancer to have money on your bank account? I have not yet the data but than it may be to late so you should transfer the money to me. You see the problem? Neither can they show that there is a big problem nor that these very costly measurments would have a significant positive effect. I am not talking 100% proof, but solid data so that all of that is at least based on something real.

If I was a whale expert .I would fit a few ships with cameras focus on the hull and prop to record for a year or period of time to collect data to calculate the risk ..Before running off on a report as a expert...

@@olafspetzki Honestly you see these so called "experts" talk out of their ass all of the time with no actual proof or reasonable data to back it up; Red meat causes cancer, this food is bad for you, etc. It's all so bullshit that I can rarely trust these guys anymore. This video literally has a guy saying "thousands are killed no question about it" mean while also saying they have no way to accurately find this out. I mean the number of deaths changes from 1200 to 3x as much and then 10x as much, if they can't even estimate the deaths in the same ballpark as one another how can someone even think about it as credible information?

I think that a whale body in decomposition, start to produce methane and float.

Terra mater can you do a video of what is happening with the elephants in Botswana?

The CO2 absorption idea is subject to much doubt and still requires a lot of verification. The number of whale deaths is also subject to debate. A whale is only slightly denser than the water around it. Given some of those big ships can run down smaller boats and not even know, what chance to know you hit a whale?

You climate nuts are soooo entertaining! 😂 Whales exhale hundreds of pounds of CO2 every day they’re alive!

Shouldnt forget about fishing ships as well. Many juveniles whale have a scar because of those fishing nets

Shine Sheila Leofany , Yes! That, too! Entanglement is extremely dangerous and a huge issue for whales 🐋 and other sea creatures, Sheila!

THIS !!! This is the single most efficient way imo

What about a tracker network that tracks groups of whales so we can know their depth and trajectories, it could be a public access information network that allows cargo ships to know if they are going to run into a group of whales surfacing to take air, specially for those areas where you can't really separate the shipping from the whale routes.

Thank you so much for your support!

Indeed, it is a serious threat! Good question! But we shouldn't forget that whales are really noise-sensitive and sadly sound-pollution in our oceans is still increasing.

I think the same,and I think that's possible to use a device producing ultrasonic sound in order to divert their (whales) path.

That's how environmentalist science works these days. Throw out a bunch of conjecture and hope social media picks it up and it goes viral. Then politicians with nothing better to do start enacting laws.

kinda agree with you, it's hard to estimate these numbers but without deep science study about it what we can do ?

We still have a lot to learn about our own earth, marine biologist are working everyday to find out as much as possible, but because the ocean is so vast and deep its not as easy as work on land. So of course there are going to be estimates.

They are just after money and will exaggerated to do so

Thank you but lets just hope that were not to late to save the whales

i think Japan needs biologist to continue their research,they take a lot of tissue samples each year.

@Adam O Why would anyone work for a oil company directly causing the destruction of environments and habitats across the planet through pollution and more importantly, climate change. Money is no incentive to commit crimes of mass destruction, or to aid in these crimes. (These actions are crimes even if they are not ruled as so in the courts because of their inherent nature of destruction!) Money doesn't matter to most people, especially those that actually care about the miracle of life and the morality of their actions.

@Adam O why would I want to work for an oil company my dream is to become a marine biologist so I could help save the whales and not spend all my money on some oil company and help kill the whales but I want to save them

It would attract orcas and the orcas would get hit

@@castawayfishingco.6442 But no orcas are getting hit or dolphins, even tho they are far more numerous than whales. I believe it's because whales are so slow and cumbersome.

You guys are not listening . Ships need to turn for a mile distance due to their weight and size . Watch the whole video !

@@randompersonnotalienbecaus5161 You aren't listening. The issue is not TURNING out of the way of a whale, that's impossible. It's getting a signal to a whale saying "ship ahead"

@@camel7624 Um, its not the orcas who are being killed by the ships, its whales. So make a sound that keeps whales away from the ships, like the orca, whom whales fear.

Thanks for sharing this story with us! I wasn't aware of that! Great to hear, that it's working so well! Indeed, speed decrease is a good idea! It's one of the solutions mentioned as a solution in our video. 👍 There are two main problems, regarding the sound warning system: 1) Whales don't understand the sounds from a ship as a warning sign. They haven't learned that ships are a threat. 🚢🤷🏽‍♀️ 2) Whales are typically feeding in areas that are not flat on the bottom. The problem: ships are also moving in the same areas - in two different directions! So now the sound which should warn a whale is coming from one side of the whale, and it’s coming from the other side of the whale, and those sounds are bouncing off the canyons and the mountains in the oceans. ↪️🔊↩️

Say what you want about India, but that's something the rest of the world could learn from. That's awesome mate.

I imagine that seems good in theory, but sound travels much further in water than air. The seas used to be so quiet that whales could communicate more or less from one end of an ocean to the other. Now it's filled with the noise of tens of thousands of large ship propellers, paricuarly around ports. It would be like you spending all life in some factory filled with a deafening racket 24/7. Hundreds of those sources of noise would be approaching or travelling away from you at any given time, and I imagine that deducing that one of those sources are heading straight towards you is near impossible. Adding another noise to that racket, particuarly one designed to be annoying, isn't going to help anyone.

Yeah, not to be the kill joy here, but India didn't do this to prevent the deaths of elephants, they did it to stop derailings and peoples lives and money being lost. With ships there is no economic incentive to change, so nothing will change. Sad reality of life that unless you're being financially disadvantaged, no action will be taken (e.g. climate change). I hate it but don't get your hopes up.

The speed and mass of the ships is too great, anything soft enough would warp with the ships motion. Its like being hammered with a giant rubber. I believe it would break the whales bones anyway puncturing their lungs. And a lot of the damage is done by the propellers also. Maybe another approach could be more effective. Study they "language" and emit an warning or spooky sound.

@@EzequielBaltazar I'm not entirely convinced, an engineering challenge to be sure but I'd be surprised if enough couldn't be done to atleast reduce the fatality rate, or atleast reduce the fatality rate at sub - cruise speeds allowing the speed limit around the Panama Canal to be maybe doubled whilst still keeping whale fatalities down. The delta in pressure between a ship during cruise and a ship at cruise hitting a whale may be relatively small but not zero and I suspect with suitable materials selection and with suitable crumple areas that it should be possible with careful design. Perhaps a staged crumpling area where the outer section may indeed occasionally deform when, say, hitting a wave, but it only deforms a little and in such a way that the effect on drag is not particularly severe, and a second and third layer each with slightly increased tolerances and greater deformation, each successively less likely to crumple during cruise but still likely to crumple during impact with a whale. With enough funding and enough research perhaps into how newer technologies such as additive manufacturing may help, I suspect that atleast a partial solution / mitigation to the problem should be possible. Do I suspect that a whale will still die if hit head on, even with all the above? Yes. Though I suspect that a lot of the currently fatal impacts are somewhat glancing hits and these I think may be somewhat mitigatable. To be fair, I'm an Aerospace Engineer, not a Nautical Engineer, and I've not run the numbers or run any simulations, etc, on this, but I would urge those that are in this field specifically to assess the potential of such partial solutions with current and developing technology. As I say, while difficult, I would be surprised if some notable improvement in atleast some relevant circumstances wasn't possible, and once that level of improvement is known, it can be weighed against cost of, e.g. speed limits in relevant areas, perhaps more or less punitive and widespread depending on how regulations go moving forward, and a decision can be made to invest or not to invest in such measures in each of these scenarios.

Sadly it isn't that easy in reality. The whales would still get hurt (cuts, broken bones, organ damage...) if the fast ships collide with their bodies. But you're right, we need to find a (technological) solution to avoid this ship strikes.

I think this could well be incorporated, as well as a speed limit in certain areas.

@@emorynguyen1583: Dissipation over distance. Doesn’t have to be really loud as long as the whale moves out of the way. They maneuver a lot faster than a cargo ship or tanker can. Otherwise every ship would have to be fitted for sonar, that would make the background noises even worse.

You would need active sensors which would add to the underwater noise pollution and won't really fix anything as the whales can't navigate correctly
