Caught in a
fishing net a whale risks to die
(Cape
Cod - USA) - Deprived of hope the attempts of marine biologist that
are in these hours trying to free a large whale from a cable
that it is slowly strangling to wide of Cod Chief (Massachusetts) in
the Atlantic Ocean; the enterprise appears is rendered still more
difficult from the meteorological conditions without to count the fact
that the mammal, of remarkable dimensions appears visibly exhausted.
The cable is penetrated for ten centimeters in the meat of
the whale provoking also one infection. The fates of the whale seem
marked if it will not be taken part soon, therefore have commented
Terry Rowles veterinary of the NOAA. The importance of the rescue
attempt is given from the reduced number of whales of this species (right-whale - Eubalaena glacialis -) that they survive in the North
Atlantic estimated in approximately 350 and from their low rate reproduction.
The whale is a male of approximately
twenty years, in the full load therefore of the own reproduction ability. The dead also of
only one whale can constitute a
terrible step towards the exstinction of one of the
species of the animal reign, already object of the pitiless hunting
from part of the man in the 1800.
