humpback whale eye to eye
Loading...
Uploaded by Rendezvousdiving on Aug 20, 2008
An 40ft humpbackwhale seemsed to be stuck in a crab trap. When a 12ft boat stops a 100 meter to check on the whale, it turns out that whale is not stuck and now the whale checks out the boat!! This is extremely rare behaviour and should not be taken as an encouragement to approach whales. As per the recommendations from DFO in a zone of 400 meter from a whale boaters should slow down and keep a sharp lookout. If the whale turn up at 100 meters or less go to neutral and or cut your engine!

awesome video. this made me wonder, though-why are people allowed (and even encouraged) to touch grey whales on boat tours in the sea of cortez? different laws?

Yes different countries, different regulations. Tourism revenue often surpasses the interest of nature. Odd though as you don't want to harm the source of the revenue...

Sorry for the late reply. There are 2 concerns. Firstly there is a small chance of baterial infection from human form which may be harmfull to the animal. However the greatest concern would be the fact that he/she might get used to human contact and boats and the increased risk of getting hurt by a propellor etc.
