| Yes, it is an interesting series not only for the children but for the adults also. Here is another fact: The sperm whale can hold its breath for up to 90 minutes. To conserve oxygen, it decreases its heart rate while redirecting blood to the brain and essential organs. |

| Very interesting show. Wonder if they will have another season. Would be interesting to see the reverse perspective. How do the whalers feel about doing such work. Do they enjoy killing whales or was that the only way they could get money for their family? Whaling is very damaging to the environment and I don't condone it, but the lengths they went to to stop the whaling was a little extreme. Especially, hitting the boat which could have killed human lives in order to save whales. |
