[edit] Beaching due to military vessels?

There was a study done showing temporal and spatial correlations between military vessels using some kind of heavy-duty sonar equipment (I'm not an expert) and whale beachings. This should be mentioned here. I don't have a link just now, but Google may help. - Samsara (talk • contribs) 08:31, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Should there be mention anywhere of Tag, Notch and Baby, three pilot whale calves that were fairly famous in the 80's for having been beached, then saved by the New England Aquarium?

[edit] Map is incorrect?

There is information on this very page that this whale is hunted in the Faroes, and yet the map indicates that there are none of this species in water even as far north as the south of England? Something doesn't make sense...
