Quoting: PsychAnd since whales use the Earth's magnetic field to assist navigation i really think the cause is a disturbance in that field. Most likely created by us, by accident or otherwise. We really know very little about our ecosystem and lots of times we cause the disturbance by the way we research it. I don't think these whales stranded because they were starving but one thing is correct... we are destroying the ecosystem incl. the food-chain. A little unrelated but maybe interesting nonetheless: The other day i saw a documentary on Discovery where they were looking for techniques to counter global warming. In this documentary specifically they tried pumping cold water from deep sea to the surface to make it cooler. Their test succeeded but they managed to disturb the food-chain in about 24 hours. Suddenly it attracted schools of fish eating away all the plankton. This caused some concern but they said immediately they will push through with the research implementing it on a large scale and see what happens. Also another documentary about the Asian carp which was implemented to counter a dominant fish which was (according to us) an imbalance. They ordered some Asian carps and released them in some lake in America and within a couple of years they multiplied exponentially and ate away the complete food-chain. When those lakes were empty and there was a flood which connected rivers and lakes at a point they crossed over and started destroying those lakes and rivers. This is now really causing a concern in the fishing-industry because all types of fish are simply gone and will never return. Sorry, that was a bit off topic but those were just a few examples where we think we can help nature out but instead are destroying it. And i think these stranded whales are a symptom of that, probably caused by us. A special type of Apes think that they are the crown of creation and can manage the whole Earth ecosystem. Whatfor a mistake. |
