We've Never Heard Whales Make This Haunting Sound Before – Yahoo News snippet curated by www.Free-Mail.co.za as being relevant to ‘Whales’.
You've probably watched enough Animal Planet to know that humpback whales communicate using clicks and whistles. But put on a pair of headphones and listen to the video above. Beneath the shrill chatter we've all heard before, there's a much …

    The field bible on marine mammals, July 2, 2004
    By 
    Bill Fulton (Sydney Australia) –

    This review is from: Whales & Dolphins (Collins Gem) (Paperback)
    This book is universally recognised in the whale conservation world as the best of all field guides to whales, dolphins and porpoises. It has no peer for accuracy of information, and the drawings of species are the most reliable you can find. The organisation I am with, the Whale and Seal Foundation, gives a copy to every student in our marine mammal rescue workshop where we train government agencies and carer groups in whale rescue including species identification.

    A WONDERFUL ADDITION FOR ANY NATURE REFERENCE LIBRARY, July 9, 2005

    This book is breathtaking. I had no idea there were 80 or more species of Cetaceans! While I may never have the opportunity to see any of these wonderful animals alive except in captivity, this book is a wonderful addition to my nature reference library. It is fascinating to read, and even scientists have not seen all of these cetaceans alive (some have been named by skeletal remains), or if they have reported seeing them alive, have possible doubts about the exact species observed. I will read this book over and over just because it is so fascinating. Beautifully illustrated, including maps of the individual species ranges. It also has an exact format, page to page, with clear, concise identification keys. Population numbers are shown where known, threats, habits, diet and habitat are also in a keyed format for each species represented. A wonderful book for anyone nature lovers, and especially good for children because so much information is provided about dwindling populations due to various types of assaults made on either the animals or their habitats by people. Even children who may not be able to clearly understand all of the text will find the pictures and the text that they can understand to be very enjoyable and educational. It is a book that most anyone will reach for again and again through the years!

    Another great book from Carwardine, December 27, 2000

    This review is from: Whales & Dolphins (Collins Gem) (Paperback)
    The amount of information packed into such a compact format is just amazing. There are chapters on whale biology, evolution, species identification (all 81 species listed) and even a mini guide to whale and dolphin watching around the globe! This is the book I carry with me whenever I go on a field trip (other than the DK guidebook which is not nearly as portable). Its small size means that it fits snugly in my cargo pockets. You might also like to know that this book features information found in DK’s “Whales, Dolphins and Porpoises” and Nature Company’s “Whales, Dolphins and Porpoises” guidebooks.

    AWESOME!, March 20, 2013

    This review is from: Sock It To Me Whales Knee High Socks (Apparel)
    They only reason I had to dock a star for these is that the whales are embroidered on, as are much of the designs by this brand, and they don’t really stretch well. The foot fits perfectly, but I do have somewhat larger calves than the average (always SOOO hard to find knee high boots that fit my calves) and they make my legs look bumpy.

    The whales are the newest pair of Sock It To Me knee highs that have been added to my collection. The socks are durable and well made as well as being super cute. The fit is perfect even on my size 5 feet. They are stretchy enough to fit most sizes it seems. The socks were delivered right on time and I only have positive things to say about this transaction and product.
