Poor thing - what happend to it ??

[justcallmehanna]

@zocojomarmy It died shortly after being rescued, which was when they were bringing the whale back to where he came from.

@JoaoCorvina It still would be really awesome to swim with a whale without it dying of stress. Just swimming with them seems really awesome. I don't want to get the whale killed or anything.

You don't get the point of fun do you? Fun is to enjoy without harm. Would be great to have fun with a whale without doing it any harm. Am I finally clear about myself after a year?

[JoaoCorvina]

@TheHyruler that is the problem, sometimes people are not aware of the arm that sometimes curiosity might do... I have a life, quite good really, 24/7 with cetaceans studying them, taking pictures for photo-id... so i can understand them and try to aware people like you that we have to respect animals.

@JoaoCorvina Not saying I want to kill it or anything dude, I said it would be fun to swim with it. ppl are so touchy nowadays. get a life

[JoaoCorvina]

@TheHyruler you wouldn´t be better than a whaling fleet! :) ... If you really like these animals, don´t do that and there´s a lot of ways to admire these animals other than direct contact! And this is not an opinion... it´s a fact! So what you are saying is that you would like to stress the animal

[JoaoCorvina]

@TheHyruler you don´t know how sensitive these animals are to human contact... I m a marine biologist working with cetaceans and i can say that many stranded animals die because of human contact, they get really stressed and they can DIE OF STRESS!!! Google it , Wiki it or as an intelligent human that you are search a bit and you´ll find that it´s really dificult to handle stranded animals, there´s still no eficient protocol... if you would entered the water with that animal...

[TheHyruler]

@JoaoCorvina No but it would be fun to swim with a whale (A)

[JoaoCorvina]

@TheHyruler : would it be fun to stress an animal?
