As a person who grew admiring the wildlife, the rumor that numerous species of animals are currently experiencing major changes in life can be confirmed by myself. From global warming to over hunting and poaching, these species have strongly been affected by humanity’s increase in food and space as our dominance over the planet continues. One family of animals affected in numbers by man is the Cetaceans, the family of whales and dolphins, who for two centuries have been farmed by man in mass numbers

‘Blue whales are the largest animals ever known to have lived on Earth. These magnificent marine mammals rule the oceans with a length of 30 m and an outstanding weight of 200 000 kg.

They are migratory, and travel great distances at different times in their lives. The three main regions where blue whales are found are the North Atlantic, the North Pacific and

And the older looking ones had more snowy white to them. Age differentiation is extremely easy because the growth of the narwhals was rapidly going from being easily about five feet as young narwhals and about 20 feet that are older. They lazily sat there either eating some fish or taking a daytime nap. Some had very noticeable tusks

The mating for blue-ringed octopuses begins when a male meets a female and begins to caress her with arm. The males then climb on the females back, the female is to allow this happening while the male starts this process. The hectocotylus is inserted under the females mantle and spermatophores are let into the female's oviduct. The female then lays between 50-100 eggs and protects them by keeping them under her tentacle until they hatch about 50 days later into the planktonic paralarvae

The article written by Rob Williams called, “The role of social aggregations and protected areas in killer whale conservation: The mixed blessing of critical habitat” was important for solidifying the importance of protected areas to killer whales. This study took place over an eight-year period (1995-2002) in a no-entry reserve of the shores of Vancouver Island in Canada: the article states, “This reserve was intended to prevent boaters from approaching two gravel beaches on which the whales are
