Although,
for reasons of own
emergency and of the animals, he is advisable to let you guide by experts in the observation of the
cetaceans in general and of the whales in particular, for who voluntarily or incidently
would have to
come in contact with these magnificent animals, is necessary the
observation of one series of important compulsory rules.
Rules
for the approach
1.
It'a useful to have always in your mind that we are intruders, and that therefore
you have to conform yourself to the rules of
the household without that they are forced to modify the own
habits.
2. It goes moreover held present that the natural curiosity
that marks the intelligent cetaceans let them
being the first to get close to the boats (in order to perhaps
make a "uman watching"). It absolutely does not have
therefore to throw in saddlings that would force
the mammals to plunge subtrahending them to our sight and, would force them to more and more short immersions
provoking panic to them, but is
necessary or to continue for the own indicated route like to
successive point 3 or to attend that they get close to us for first.
3. The better way in order to find and not to lose sight
of the cetaceans is to maintain one moreover broken off and a
constant speed, trying, above all if equipped of motor boat, not to
strike the water with the hull (that provokes noises that can
turn out annoying the inhabitants of the submarine world). If a shoal had to be found to us right in the middle it is necessary to
observe the previous rules rigorously in order to avoid that a
variation of the route or the speed of our boat can separate the
members of the shoal quite or injure them, it this case it's necessary to
immediately put in crowds the propeller.
4. A still greater
attention will be necessary in the case in which we meet one
mother with the baby. The puppies in fact come instructd
to the swim from the mother with one lower speed of the normal
and with an intense physical contact.
5. It is necessary to
know that one of the main reasons for which it has been
created the sanctuary is to guarantee to the cetaceans a sure
and not polluted ambient. The pollution (chemical and acoustic) can above all be carried indifferently from the great ships or also
from small boats if in great number.
6. Above all with
motor boats is necessary to
respect a distance of emergency for the animals at least 50 meters.
Recommendations:
-
avoid the
maneuvers that can hinder the movements of the cetaceans, modify the natural behavior or to carry to a collision
-
don't
chase the animals or direct the boat directly on they
-
extinguish
the motors if the cetaceans are firm with gradual lessening of the
number of turns of the motor or if they are in motion maintain a speed
and a broken off constant without abrupt variations
-
don't
get close when
they are accompanied from babies; don't carry out maneuvers that can
separate the mothers from puppies
-
be
sure that there
are not other boats in the beam of 100 meters from the cetaceans and not more than 3 within 200
meters
-
don't
get close less than
50 meters from the animals
