Whale Conservation: Whale Center Of New England
Barbara Taormina of the Gloucester Daily Times reports on progress made towards species preservation. Includes details on improved fertility and population health.

Extractions: A baby boom among right whales is being reported as fishermen get ready to begin using new safety devices to protect the highly endangered species. According to the National Marine Fisheries Service, 14 right whale calves have been sighted off Florida and Georgia during the last two months. While the number seems small, it's a huge leap for right whales, whose population has dwindled to about 300 animals in the northern Atlantic. "It's fantastic stuff," said Mason Weinrich, of the Gloucester-based Whale Center of New England . "But we must see sustained seasons, we need to see years of calving like this." According to Weinrich, the births are not the only good news about right whales. Scientists have also reported the population as a whole seems to be in better health. Weinrich speculated that the whales' improved appearance could be due to an increase in copepods, the whales' crustacean of choice and main food source. But while the news is good, scientists tempered their enthusiasm with customary caution.

Extractions: Whales, dolphins and porpoises are succumbing to new and ever-increasing dangers. Collisions with ships and entanglement in fishing gear threaten the North Atlantic right whale with extinction, while the critically endangered Western North Pacific gray whale is at serious risk because of intensive oil and gas development in its feeding grounds. Alarm is also growing over other hazards including toxic contamination, the effects of climate change and habitat degradation.

She was a dedicated Marine Biologist and lover of all animals, especially those of the oceans. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made in her name to the The whales are not as pleantiful here as they were in San Ignacio last year. On a typical day we will see maybe 6 whales, or pairs, up close. We finally had a long encounter with a "friendly" gray in mid- February. I do not know if it is "El Nino" related. There is a mouth (boca) to the lagoon nearby. From time to time, I have seen the adult grays surfing in the breakers here. There is much more wildlife here than in San Ignacio, though. There are birds galore. The mangroves are teeming with life. Magdalena Bay is due west of Ciudad Constitution.

Extractions: Languages Spanish Portuguese German Italian Korean Arabic Japanese Time, Inc. Time.com People Fortune EW InStyle Business 2.0 Volunteers gave up their whale rescue efforts Tuesday after the whales stranded themselves a third time. WELLFLEET, Massachusetts (CNN) About 28 pilot whales were being euthanized Tuesday evening after stranding themselves for the third time in two days, and marine experts decided the animals were too exhausted to swim back to open sea. The whales were all that remained of 55 who became stranded on a beach Monday at the southern end of Cape Cod Bay. Volunteers from the Cape Cod Stranding Network and other facilities managed to save 46 of them, but 44 of them were found stranded on a mud flat in the bay Tuesday. Workers managed to get about 28 of them swimming again after the tide came in, but despite efforts of people in small boats to herd them to the north and open sea, the whales made their way to a marshy area and became stranded again. They were to be euthanized by injection.

Extractions: Laird Campbell People searching for a discussion of Amnesty International's views on Tunisia learned about human rights in that North African country but from supporters of the Tunisian authorities, not from the human rights group. The government supporters brought surfers to a site with a soothing Web address: www.amnesty-tunisia.org And bibliophiles who trust the grande dame of on-line retailers, Amazon.com, for suggestions under the headings of "Destined for Greatness" and "What We're Reading" were dismayed to learn that some publishers had paid for special treatment for their books meaning a more accurate heading would have been "What We're Paid to Say We're Reading." (After the disclosure, Amazon added a note on its home page to make a subtle acknowledgement of the practice.) On the World Wide Web, straight facts can be hard to find. After plowing through dense and recalcitrant search engines that offer more sites than you can point a mouse at, after enduring delays, lost links and dead ends and arriving at a site that looks just right, Web surfers must deal with uncertainty: Is the information true, unbiased and free of hidden sales pitches?
