01:00:13,583 --> 01:00:14,125
in a row,

10
01:00:14,375 --> 01:00:15,083
recording it

11
01:00:15,083 --> 01:00:16,333
before I go live,

12
01:00:16,333 --> 01:00:16,833
trying out this

01:00:16,833 --> 01:00:17,750

But bringing you

21
01:00:23,833 --> 01:00:24,125
ocean

22
01:00:24,125 --> 01:00:24,541
conservation

23
01:00:24,541 --> 01:00:25,125
stories,

24
01:00:25,958 --> 01:00:26,541
about orcas.

25
01:00:26,916 --> 01:00:27,708
We're going to be talking about

26
01:00:27,708 --> 01:00:28,458
what not to do

27
01:00:28,458 --> 01:00:29,333
with the shark by

28
01:00:29,333 --> 01:00:29,916
looking at a

29
01:00:29,916 --> 01:00:30,625
TikTok video that

30
01:00:30,625 --> 01:00:31,041
I found.

31
01:00:31,541 --> 01:00:31,833
And of course,

32
01:00:31,833 --> 01:00:32,166
we're going to be

33
01:00:32,166 --> 01:00:32,666
talking about the

34
01:00:32,666 --> 01:00:33,791
new movie by

35
01:00:33,791 --> 01:00:34,750
David

36
01:00:34,750 --> 01:00:35,708
Attenborough or

37
01:00:35,708 --> 01:00:36,333
starring David

38
01:00:36,333 --> 01:00:36,666
Attenborough

39
01:00:36,666 --> 01:00:37,583
called Ocean.

40
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:38,416
Haven't seen the

41
01:00:38,416 --> 01:00:39,000
movie yet, but I

42
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:39,500
want to cover

43
01:00:39,500 --> 01:00:40,125
some of the

44
01:00:40,125 --> 01:00:41,000
aspects of it,

45
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:41,375
especially

46
01:00:41,375 --> 01:00:42,125
there's a

47
01:00:42,125 --> 01:00:42,833
trawling scene

48
01:00:42,833 --> 01:00:43,333
that I think

49
01:00:43,333 --> 01:00:44,125
people are a

50
01:00:44,125 --> 01:00:44,250
little

51
01:00:44,250 --> 01:00:45,000
surprised up.

52
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:45,416
But it's going to

53
01:00:45,416 --> 01:00:46,625
be interesting to

54
01:00:46,625 --> 01:00:47,416
go over that.

55
01:00:47,416 --> 01:00:48,708
So let's start

56
01:00:48,708 --> 01:00:49,958
the show.

57
01:00:51,458 --> 01:00:51,833
What's up

58
01:00:51,833 --> 01:00:52,208

59
01:00:52,541 --> 01:00:53,291

01:00:59,750 --> 01:01:00,500
you can speak up

01:01:00,500 --> 01:01:01,000
for the ocean,

74
01:01:01,125 --> 01:01:01,875
and what you can

75
01:01:01,875 --> 01:01:03,125
do to live for a

76
01:01:03,125 --> 01:01:04,333
better ocean by

01:01:04,333 --> 01:01:05,666
taking action.

78

lot of different

01:01:08,708 --> 01:01:09,916
things going on.

84
01:01:09,916 --> 01:01:10,208
Three different

85
01:01:10,208 --> 01:01:10,750
stories.

01:01:10,750 --> 01:01:11,083

We talk about

what not to do

95
01:01:14,458 --> 01:01:15,125
with the shark by

96
01:01:15,125 --> 01:01:15,541
looking at a

97
01:01:15,541 --> 01:01:16,125
TikTok video.

98
01:01:16,416 --> 01:01:16,833
You can do more

99
01:01:16,833 --> 01:01:17,041
of those

100
01:01:17,041 --> 01:01:17,791
reaction videos.

101
01:01:17,791 --> 01:01:18,166
You guys find a

102
01:01:18,166 --> 01:01:18,833
lot of TikToks

103
01:01:18,833 --> 01:01:19,125
that are just

104
01:01:19,125 --> 01:01:20,041
like, it's a little

105
01:01:20,041 --> 01:01:20,916
weird to do.

106
01:01:21,166 --> 01:01:21,500
You know, I don't

107
01:01:21,500 --> 01:01:21,916
know what people

108
01:01:21,916 --> 01:01:22,083
are

109
01:01:22,083 --> 01:01:22,666
thinking about.

110
01:01:22,916 --> 01:01:23,375
And then of

111
01:01:23,375 --> 01:01:23,708
course, we're

112
01:01:23,708 --> 01:01:23,833
going to be

113
01:01:23,833 --> 01:01:24,500

114
01:01:24,500 --> 01:01:26,083

115
01:01:26,083 --> 01:01:27,250
know, an ocean

116
01:01:27,250 --> 01:01:27,708
conservation

117
01:01:27,708 --> 01:01:28,291
story.

118
01:01:28,958 --> 01:01:29,750
Here's the thing.

119
01:01:29,750 --> 01:01:30,625
I did an episode

120
01:01:30,625 --> 01:01:32,166
last episode

121
01:01:32,166 --> 01:01:32,958
about

122
01:01:32,958 --> 01:01:34,458
conservation

123
01:01:34,458 --> 01:01:35,208
stories,

124
01:01:35,208 --> 01:01:35,791
especially near

125
01:01:35,791 --> 01:01:36,000
shore

126
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:36,458
conservation

127
01:01:36,458 --> 01:01:36,875
stories

128
01:01:36,875 --> 01:01:37,666
and identifying

129
01:01:37,666 --> 01:01:39,333
heroes that are

130
01:01:39,333 --> 01:01:40,000
conservation

131
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:40,500
heroes.

132
01:01:40,916 --> 01:01:41,791
People who are

133
01:01:41,791 --> 01:01:42,333
leading the

134
01:01:42,333 --> 01:01:43,000
charge for

135
01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:43,458
conservation

136
01:01:43,458 --> 01:01:44,583
along the near

137
01:01:44,583 --> 01:01:45,500
shore, along the

138
01:01:45,500 --> 01:01:45,833
coastline.

139
01:01:46,416 --> 01:01:46,791
Angela

140
01:01:46,791 --> 01:01:49,250
Villagomez, Alia

141
01:01:49,250 --> 01:01:50,750
Haidyat, or from

142
01:01:50,750 --> 01:01:51,500
the center of

143
01:01:51,500 --> 01:01:52,041
ocean progress,

144
01:01:52,958 --> 01:01:53,458
or from the

145
01:01:53,458 --> 01:01:53,708
center of

146
01:01:53,708 --> 01:01:53,958
American

147
01:01:53,958 --> 01:01:54,666
progress, sorry,

148
01:01:54,916 --> 01:01:55,500
talking about

149
01:01:55,500 --> 01:01:55,958
ocean

150
01:01:55,958 --> 01:01:56,833
conservation,

151
01:01:57,250 --> 01:01:58,291
going from area

152
01:01:58,291 --> 01:01:59,333
based offshore

153
01:01:59,333 --> 01:02:00,583
conservation to

154
01:02:00,583 --> 01:02:01,250
near shore

155
01:02:01,250 --> 01:02:01,875
conservation.

156
01:02:02,416 --> 01:02:02,875
Something that

157
01:02:02,875 --> 01:02:03,958
kind of surprises

158
01:02:03,958 --> 01:02:04,625
a lot of people,

159
01:02:04,625 --> 01:02:05,791
but also is so

160
01:02:05,791 --> 01:02:06,500
near and dear to

161
01:02:06,500 --> 01:02:06,833
our hearts.

162
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:08,083
Because as I said

163
01:02:08,083 --> 01:02:08,958
in the episode,

164
01:02:08,958 --> 01:02:09,625
when you look out

165
01:02:09,625 --> 01:02:10,000
from the

166
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:10,500
coastline,

167
01:02:10,500 --> 01:02:10,791
whether you're on

168
01:02:10,791 --> 01:02:11,500
a lake or river,

169
01:02:11,958 --> 01:02:13,083
when you're on

170
01:02:13,083 --> 01:02:13,666
the coastline of

171
01:02:13,666 --> 01:02:14,083
an ocean,

172
01:02:14,083 --> 01:02:14,833
you look out into

173
01:02:14,833 --> 01:02:15,083
the water.

174
01:02:15,125 --> 01:02:15,666
You want to see

175
01:02:15,666 --> 01:02:16,166
clean water.

176
01:02:17,083 --> 01:02:17,208
You want to see

177
01:02:17,208 --> 01:02:17,416
maybe some

178
01:02:17,416 --> 01:02:17,708
wildlife

179
01:02:17,708 --> 01:02:18,500
out there.

180
01:02:18,500 --> 01:02:19,000
You want to see

181
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:19,833
some waves.

182
01:02:19,833 --> 01:02:20,166
You want to see

183
01:02:20,166 --> 01:02:20,833
some habitats,

184
01:02:21,041 --> 01:02:21,250
maybe some

185
01:02:21,250 --> 01:02:22,208
seagrass, maybe a

186
01:02:22,208 --> 01:02:23,000
coral reef or

187
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:23,333
something.

188
01:02:23,958 --> 01:02:24,541
But it's always

189
01:02:24,541 --> 01:02:25,083
fun to see

190
01:02:25,083 --> 01:02:25,416
something

191
01:02:25,416 --> 01:02:25,916
healthy.

192
01:02:25,916 --> 01:02:26,208
You don't want to

193
01:02:26,208 --> 01:02:27,666
see anything that

194
01:02:27,666 --> 01:02:29,291
looks green, like

195
01:02:29,291 --> 01:02:30,250
that's algae

196
01:02:30,250 --> 01:02:30,791
related or

197
01:02:30,791 --> 01:02:31,541
that smells,

198
01:02:32,166 --> 01:02:33,166
or you can smell

199
01:02:33,166 --> 01:02:33,625
like sometimes

200
01:02:33,625 --> 01:02:34,125
you can smell

201
01:02:34,125 --> 01:02:34,833
like diesel,

202
01:02:35,041 --> 01:02:36,000
gasoline and sea

203
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:36,833
oil slicks.

204
01:02:36,833 --> 01:02:37,166
You don't want to

205
01:02:37,166 --> 01:02:37,583
see that.

206
01:02:37,583 --> 01:02:38,041
You want to see

207
01:02:38,041 --> 01:02:39,416
clean oceans.

208
01:02:39,666 --> 01:02:40,333
And to do that,

209
01:02:40,333 --> 01:02:41,333
we need people to

210
01:02:41,333 --> 01:02:41,750
step up.

211
01:02:42,041 --> 01:02:42,833
We need to focus

212
01:02:42,833 --> 01:02:43,541
on a lot of

213
01:02:43,541 --> 01:02:44,000
ocean heroes.

214
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:44,750
We need to focus

215
01:02:44,750 --> 01:02:45,250
on those

216
01:02:45,250 --> 01:02:46,166
community leaders

217
01:02:46,166 --> 01:02:47,333
that want to help

218
01:02:47,333 --> 01:02:48,791
us save our

219
01:02:48,791 --> 01:02:49,458
coastlines.

220
01:02:49,458 --> 01:02:49,791
And so we're

221
01:02:49,791 --> 01:02:50,041
going to be

222
01:02:50,041 --> 01:02:52,166
talking about one

223
01:02:52,166 --> 01:02:53,416
today, one story

224
01:02:53,416 --> 01:02:54,875
that I want to

225
01:02:54,875 --> 01:02:55,541
cover in this

226
01:02:55,541 --> 01:02:56,083
episode.

227
01:02:56,625 --> 01:02:57,125
Now, this is

228
01:02:57,125 --> 01:02:57,500
always

229
01:02:57,500 --> 01:02:58,166
interesting

230
01:02:58,166 --> 01:02:59,166
because we're

231
01:02:59,166 --> 01:02:59,416
going to be

232
01:02:59,416 --> 01:03:00,333
talking about

233
01:03:01,750 --> 01:03:02,625
something that is

234
01:03:02,625 --> 01:03:03,166
not necessarily

235
01:03:03,166 --> 01:03:04,375
an ocean hero as

236
01:03:04,375 --> 01:03:04,958
an individual.

237
01:03:05,333 --> 01:03:05,583
I'm going to be

238
01:03:05,583 --> 01:03:05,916
talking about

239
01:03:05,916 --> 01:03:06,625
that next

240
01:03:06,625 --> 01:03:07,458
episode.

241
01:03:07,458 --> 01:03:08,416
If you catch the

242
01:03:08,416 --> 01:03:09,166
Mondays episode,

243
01:03:09,541 --> 01:03:10,708
that will be with

244
01:03:10,708 --> 01:03:11,625
a local hero in

245
01:03:11,625 --> 01:03:12,166
the Maldives,

246
01:03:12,750 --> 01:03:13,875
looking to help

247
01:03:13,875 --> 01:03:14,791
with plastic

248
01:03:14,791 --> 01:03:15,625
pollution, single

249
01:03:15,625 --> 01:03:16,125
use plastic

250
01:03:16,125 --> 01:03:16,958
pollution and

251
01:03:16,958 --> 01:03:17,791
what she was

252
01:03:17,791 --> 01:03:18,500
able to do.

253
01:03:18,791 --> 01:03:19,208
But today we're

254
01:03:19,208 --> 01:03:19,500
going to be

255
01:03:19,500 --> 01:03:20,541
talking about

256
01:03:20,541 --> 01:03:23,125
orcas in the San

257
01:03:23,125 --> 01:03:23,916
Juan Islands in

258
01:03:23,916 --> 01:03:24,791
Washington state.

259
01:03:25,333 --> 01:03:25,666
We're going to be

260
01:03:25,666 --> 01:03:26,541
talking about

261
01:03:26,541 --> 01:03:27,166
something, a

262
01:03:27,166 --> 01:03:29,041
community B whale

263
01:03:29,041 --> 01:03:30,208
wise guidelines

264
01:03:30,208 --> 01:03:31,875
that was led

265
01:03:32,333 --> 01:03:33,791
by whale watch

266
01:03:33,791 --> 01:03:34,208
captains,

267
01:03:34,625 --> 01:03:35,208
naturalists,

268
01:03:35,750 --> 01:03:36,333
conservationists

269
01:03:36,333 --> 01:03:36,833
from the San

270
01:03:36,833 --> 01:03:37,458
Juan County.

271
01:03:38,291 --> 01:03:38,625
And so we're

272
01:03:38,625 --> 01:03:38,791
going to be

273
01:03:38,791 --> 01:03:39,083
talking about

274
01:03:39,083 --> 01:03:39,500
some of the key

275
01:03:39,500 --> 01:03:40,958
outcomes and the

276
01:03:40,958 --> 01:03:41,333
conservation

277
01:03:41,333 --> 01:03:41,666
targets

278
01:03:41,791 --> 01:03:42,625
that they talked

279
01:03:42,625 --> 01:03:43,125
about. So here

280
01:03:43,125 --> 01:03:43,541
was the problem

281
01:03:43,541 --> 01:03:44,125
in the early two

282
01:03:44,125 --> 01:03:44,625
by the early

283
01:03:44,625 --> 01:03:45,458
2000s, the

284
01:03:45,458 --> 01:03:45,666
southern

285
01:03:45,666 --> 01:03:46,333
resident whale

286
01:03:47,041 --> 01:03:48,083
orca population.

287
01:03:49,375 --> 01:03:50,083
They basically

288
01:03:50,083 --> 01:03:51,541
were declining in

289
01:03:51,541 --> 01:03:52,666
population due to

290
01:03:52,666 --> 01:03:53,416
a lack of food,

291
01:03:53,416 --> 01:03:53,583
which is

292
01:03:53,583 --> 01:03:54,208
an examine

293
01:03:54,875 --> 01:03:55,458
contaminants and

294
01:03:55,458 --> 01:03:56,250
of course, vessel

295
01:03:56,250 --> 01:03:56,708
noise

296
01:03:56,708 --> 01:03:57,500
distribution or

297
01:03:57,500 --> 01:03:58,166
disturbance.

298
01:03:58,958 --> 01:04:00,208
Before that, they

299
01:04:00,208 --> 01:04:01,000
were the target

300
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:02,416
of capture in

301
01:04:02,416 --> 01:04:03,583
1970s and they

302
01:04:03,583 --> 01:04:03,916
just never

303
01:04:03,916 --> 01:04:04,333
recovered. They

304
01:04:04,333 --> 01:04:04,875
lost about half

305
01:04:04,875 --> 01:04:05,541
their population.

306
01:04:05,958 --> 01:04:06,291
They haven't

307
01:04:06,291 --> 01:04:06,708
really fully

308
01:04:06,708 --> 01:04:07,375
recovered from

309
01:04:07,375 --> 01:04:07,666
that. I think it

310
01:04:07,666 --> 01:04:08,083
was 60

311
01:04:08,083 --> 01:04:08,541
individuals.

312
01:04:08,583 --> 01:04:09,000
So this is a

313
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:09,541
little less than

314
01:04:09,541 --> 01:04:10,041
half their

315
01:04:10,041 --> 01:04:10,625
population that

316
01:04:10,625 --> 01:04:10,916
went into

317
01:04:10,916 --> 01:04:11,416
captivity.

318
01:04:12,125 --> 01:04:13,208
And since then,

319
01:04:13,208 --> 01:04:13,500
they've never

320
01:04:13,500 --> 01:04:13,750
really recovered

321
01:04:13,750 --> 01:04:15,000
and it's never

322
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:16,541
fun to be able to

323
01:04:16,541 --> 01:04:17,166
have to go

324
01:04:17,166 --> 01:04:17,583
through that.

325
01:04:18,041 --> 01:04:19,708
So that's what

326
01:04:19,708 --> 01:04:20,583
was going

327
01:04:20,583 --> 01:04:22,125
on in that.

328
01:04:22,375 --> 01:04:23,416
And we want to

329
01:04:23,416 --> 01:04:25,208
make sure that

330
01:04:25,208 --> 01:04:27,041
people know what

331
01:04:27,041 --> 01:04:27,916
happens to these

332
01:04:27,916 --> 01:04:28,708
animals, right?

333
01:04:28,958 --> 01:04:29,625
Down to only

334
01:04:29,625 --> 01:04:30,458
about 73

335
01:04:30,458 --> 01:04:31,166
individuals

336
01:04:31,166 --> 01:04:32,166
by 2024.

337
01:04:32,458 --> 01:04:32,916
That was the last

338
01:04:32,916 --> 01:04:33,250
estimate

339
01:04:33,250 --> 01:04:33,958
that was taken.

340
01:04:34,333 --> 01:04:35,041
And then, you

341
01:04:35,041 --> 01:04:35,458
know, they're

342
01:04:35,458 --> 01:04:36,041
spending less

343
01:04:36,041 --> 01:04:37,833
time foraging,

344
01:04:37,833 --> 01:04:38,833
you know, they're

345
01:04:38,833 --> 01:04:39,750
spending less

346
01:04:39,750 --> 01:04:40,833
time foraging.

347
01:04:40,833 --> 01:04:41,291
They're spending

348
01:04:41,750 --> 01:04:43,500
more time trying

349
01:04:43,500 --> 01:04:45,875
to just be safe,

350
01:04:46,333 --> 01:04:47,125
you know, be safe

351
01:04:47,125 --> 01:04:48,333
and enjoy life.

352
01:04:48,791 --> 01:04:49,291
And that's

353
01:04:49,291 --> 01:04:50,208
really hard.

354
01:04:50,208 --> 01:04:50,750
So spending less

355
01:04:50,750 --> 01:04:51,333
time foraging

356
01:04:51,333 --> 01:04:51,958
successfully due

357
01:04:51,958 --> 01:04:53,375
to boat mascots,

358
01:04:53,625 --> 01:04:54,083
their eco

359
01:04:54,083 --> 01:04:55,083
location. They

360
01:04:55,083 --> 01:04:55,750
are a very

361
01:04:56,250 --> 01:04:58,166
pod friendly.

362
01:04:58,166 --> 01:04:58,791
They're very like

363
01:04:58,791 --> 01:05:00,000
close family knit

364
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:01,833
orca population.

365
01:05:02,375 --> 01:05:03,166
As many of the

366
01:05:03,166 --> 01:05:03,791
orcas are,

367
01:05:03,791 --> 01:05:04,541
they communicate.

368
01:05:04,541 --> 01:05:05,208
They use noise to

369
01:05:05,208 --> 01:05:05,958
communicate with

370
01:05:05,958 --> 01:05:07,000
whistles, clicks

371
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:07,375
and all

372
01:05:07,375 --> 01:05:07,833
that stuff.

373
01:05:08,458 --> 01:05:09,125
And that leads to

374
01:05:09,125 --> 01:05:09,833
missing feeding

375
01:05:09,833 --> 01:05:10,791
opportunities and

376
01:05:10,791 --> 01:05:11,416
miss deleting

377
01:05:11,416 --> 01:05:13,541
from like dangers

378
01:05:13,541 --> 01:05:14,416
around like ships

379
01:05:14,416 --> 01:05:14,708
or anything

380
01:05:14,708 --> 01:05:15,125
like that.

381
01:05:15,333 --> 01:05:15,916
So, you know,

382
01:05:15,916 --> 01:05:17,083
having that noise

383
01:05:17,083 --> 01:05:18,541
can really affect

384
01:05:18,541 --> 01:05:19,500
these this

385
01:05:19,500 --> 01:05:20,125
population. They

386
01:05:20,125 --> 01:05:20,958
feed together.

387
01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:21,958
They communicate

388
01:05:21,958 --> 01:05:22,666
when they feed.

389
01:05:22,666 --> 01:05:23,041
They communicate

390
01:05:23,041 --> 01:05:23,458
when they do

391
01:05:23,458 --> 01:05:24,291
everything and

392
01:05:24,291 --> 01:05:25,041
not being able to

393
01:05:25,041 --> 01:05:25,541
communicate

394
01:05:25,541 --> 01:05:25,875
really

395
01:05:25,875 --> 01:05:26,583
harms them.

396
01:05:26,583 --> 01:05:27,416
So not having

397
01:05:28,500 --> 01:05:29,041
always having

398
01:05:29,041 --> 01:05:30,375
boat problems or

399
01:05:30,375 --> 01:05:31,333
boats around them

400
01:05:31,333 --> 01:05:32,333
that causes noise

401
01:05:32,333 --> 01:05:33,166
can really

402
01:05:33,166 --> 01:05:33,750
affect them.

403
01:05:34,208 --> 01:05:34,791
So let's look at

404
01:05:34,791 --> 01:05:35,250
the local

405
01:05:35,250 --> 01:05:35,916
context here.

406
01:05:35,916 --> 01:05:36,250
Let's look at the

407
01:05:36,250 --> 01:05:36,791
San Juan Islands

408
01:05:36,791 --> 01:05:37,583
are a hub for

409
01:05:37,583 --> 01:05:38,083
whale watching

410
01:05:38,083 --> 01:05:38,750
tourism actually

411
01:05:38,750 --> 01:05:39,291
going out to

412
01:05:39,291 --> 01:05:40,041
Vancouver in a

413
01:05:40,041 --> 01:05:40,500
little bit

414
01:05:40,958 --> 01:05:41,541
in a couple of

415
01:05:41,541 --> 01:05:42,166
weeks, hopefully

416
01:05:42,166 --> 01:05:43,000
going to do some

417
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:44,458
orca whale orca

418
01:05:44,458 --> 01:05:45,083
watching then.

419
01:05:45,125 --> 01:05:46,208
This industry

420
01:05:46,208 --> 01:05:47,166
provides major

421
01:05:47,166 --> 01:05:48,125
local income but

422
01:05:48,125 --> 01:05:49,000
poses risks

423
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:49,833
through noise

424
01:05:49,833 --> 01:05:51,000
pollution, too

425
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:51,416
close approaches

426
01:05:51,416 --> 01:05:53,041
and uncoordinated

427
01:05:53,041 --> 01:05:53,708
boat traffic,

428
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:54,458
especially when

429
01:05:54,458 --> 01:05:54,916
whales are

430
01:05:54,916 --> 01:05:55,250
present.

431
01:05:55,250 --> 01:05:55,666
Everybody gets

432
01:05:55,666 --> 01:05:56,083
excited.

433
01:05:56,083 --> 01:05:56,583
Everybody wants

434
01:05:56,583 --> 01:05:57,000
to see the

435
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:57,791
whales. If you're

436
01:05:57,791 --> 01:05:58,500
paying to go on a

437
01:05:58,500 --> 01:05:59,000
whale watching

438
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:00,083
ship, you want to

439
01:06:00,083 --> 01:06:00,500
see the whales

440
01:06:00,500 --> 01:06:00,708
when

441
01:06:00,708 --> 01:06:01,291
they're there.

442
01:06:01,291 --> 01:06:02,000
If you see orcas,

443
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:02,416
I want to see the

444
01:06:02,416 --> 01:06:02,833
orcas when

445
01:06:02,833 --> 01:06:03,250
they're there,

446
01:06:03,541 --> 01:06:04,083
but so are

447
01:06:04,083 --> 01:06:04,625
other boats.

448
01:06:04,625 --> 01:06:05,166
So you have to be

449
01:06:05,166 --> 01:06:05,833
mindful of other

450
01:06:05,833 --> 01:06:06,375
boats and you

451
01:06:06,375 --> 01:06:06,916
have to make sure

452
01:06:06,916 --> 01:06:07,333
that these

453
01:06:07,333 --> 01:06:08,041
animals are not

454
01:06:08,041 --> 01:06:09,083
being affected.

455
01:06:09,583 --> 01:06:09,916
Now, who are the

456
01:06:09,916 --> 01:06:10,541
local hearers in

457
01:06:10,541 --> 01:06:11,083
this situation?

458
01:06:11,500 --> 01:06:11,666
It's not

459
01:06:11,666 --> 01:06:12,000
necessarily an

460
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:12,625
individual. It's

461
01:06:12,625 --> 01:06:12,958
actually a

462
01:06:12,958 --> 01:06:13,458
collective of

463
01:06:13,458 --> 01:06:14,000
whale watching

464
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:14,250
operators.

465
01:06:14,958 --> 01:06:15,916
Naturalists and

466
01:06:15,916 --> 01:06:16,583
marine educators

467
01:06:16,583 --> 01:06:17,166
from the San

468
01:06:17,166 --> 01:06:17,958
Juan Islands

469
01:06:18,333 --> 01:06:19,041
decided to take

470
01:06:19,041 --> 01:06:19,541
responsibility

471
01:06:19,541 --> 01:06:20,500
for the problem

472
01:06:20,500 --> 01:06:21,416
within their own

473
01:06:21,416 --> 01:06:22,500
industry. Rather

474
01:06:22,500 --> 01:06:23,416
than wait for

475
01:06:23,416 --> 01:06:23,791
government

476
01:06:23,791 --> 01:06:24,291
mandates,

477
01:06:24,666 --> 01:06:25,250
they voluntarily

478
01:06:25,250 --> 01:06:26,458
developed a code

479
01:06:26,458 --> 01:06:27,333
of conduct. Now,

480
01:06:27,500 --> 01:06:28,041
waiting for

481
01:06:28,041 --> 01:06:28,416
government

482
01:06:28,416 --> 01:06:28,916
regulations

483
01:06:28,916 --> 01:06:29,666
mandates doesn't

484
01:06:29,666 --> 01:06:30,416
always happen.

485
01:06:31,083 --> 01:06:31,625
The wait can be

486
01:06:31,625 --> 01:06:32,500
very long. It

487
01:06:32,500 --> 01:06:33,125
could affect the

488
01:06:33,125 --> 01:06:33,833
whale population.

489
01:06:34,125 --> 01:06:34,625
So they decided

490
01:06:34,625 --> 01:06:35,166
to take it upon

491
01:06:35,166 --> 01:06:35,750
themselves since

492
01:06:35,750 --> 01:06:36,208
they are leading

493
01:06:36,208 --> 01:06:36,625
the charge

494
01:06:36,625 --> 01:06:37,625
anyway. And they

495
01:06:37,625 --> 01:06:37,875
said, you

496
01:06:37,875 --> 01:06:38,250
know what?

497
01:06:38,250 --> 01:06:39,041
We are going to

498
01:06:39,041 --> 01:06:39,750
put a voluntary

499
01:06:39,750 --> 01:06:40,916
code of conduct

500
01:06:40,916 --> 01:06:41,833
that we that

501
01:06:41,833 --> 01:06:42,083
we're going

502
01:06:42,083 --> 01:06:42,458
to develop

503
01:06:43,041 --> 01:06:43,833
together. They

504
01:06:43,833 --> 01:06:44,375
partnered with

505
01:06:44,375 --> 01:06:45,000
scientists, local

506
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:45,500
governments,

507
01:06:45,833 --> 01:06:47,916
Parks Canada, NOAA and

508
01:06:47,916 --> 01:06:48,708
Fisheries and

509
01:06:48,708 --> 01:06:49,000
Oceans

510
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:49,750
Canada, DFO

511
01:06:50,250 --> 01:06:51,333
for the federal

512
01:06:51,333 --> 01:06:52,125
government. So

513
01:06:52,125 --> 01:06:52,625
the key

514
01:06:52,625 --> 01:06:53,250
individuals of

515
01:06:53,250 --> 01:06:53,750
this group were

516
01:06:53,750 --> 01:06:54,416
the San Juan

517
01:06:54,416 --> 01:06:55,291
County Marine

518
01:06:55,291 --> 01:06:55,958
Resources

519
01:06:55,958 --> 01:06:56,416
Committee,

520
01:06:56,625 --> 01:06:57,125
the MRC,

521
01:06:57,750 --> 01:06:59,125
the Whale Museum

522
01:06:59,125 --> 01:06:59,708
from Friday

523
01:06:59,708 --> 01:07:00,916
Harbor, Sound

524
01:07:00,916 --> 01:07:01,833
Watch Boater

525
01:07:01,833 --> 01:07:02,583
Education

526
01:07:02,583 --> 01:07:03,500
Program, and the

527
01:07:03,500 --> 01:07:04,083
Pacific Whale

528
01:07:04,083 --> 01:07:04,541
Watch

529
01:07:04,541 --> 01:07:05,000
Association,

530
01:07:05,250 --> 01:07:06,041
the PWWA,

531
01:07:06,416 --> 01:07:06,958
the members of

532
01:07:06,958 --> 01:07:07,833
that association.

533
01:07:08,333 --> 01:07:09,000
So here was the

534
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:09,333
conservation

535
01:07:09,333 --> 01:07:10,041
action. So this

536
01:07:10,041 --> 01:07:10,583
guideline turned

537
01:07:10,583 --> 01:07:11,458
into the B

538
01:07:11,458 --> 01:07:11,916
Whale Wise

539
01:07:12,625 --> 01:07:13,375
guidelines. So it

540
01:07:13,375 --> 01:07:13,958
launched in the

541
01:07:13,958 --> 01:07:15,250
early 2000s and

542
01:07:15,250 --> 01:07:15,833
continually

543
01:07:15,833 --> 01:07:17,250
updated based on

544
01:07:17,250 --> 01:07:17,916
science and

545
01:07:17,916 --> 01:07:19,041
regulation. The

546
01:07:19,041 --> 01:07:19,500
campaign

547
01:07:19,500 --> 01:07:20,208
encourages

548
01:07:20,791 --> 01:07:21,375
voluntary and

549
01:07:21,375 --> 01:07:22,166
regulatory best

550
01:07:22,166 --> 01:07:23,208
practices for all

551
01:07:23,208 --> 01:07:24,416
vessels around

552
01:07:24,416 --> 01:07:25,333
whales, including

553
01:07:25,333 --> 01:07:27,291
staying 400 yards

554
01:07:27,291 --> 01:07:28,708
away from orcas,

555
01:07:29,333 --> 01:07:29,458
speed

556
01:07:29,458 --> 01:07:30,041
restrictions

557
01:07:30,041 --> 01:07:31,291
within 1,000

558
01:07:31,291 --> 01:07:32,541
yards, avoiding

559
01:07:32,541 --> 01:07:33,333
the path of

560
01:07:33,333 --> 01:07:34,375
whales as much as

561
01:07:34,375 --> 01:07:34,625
possible,

562
01:07:35,208 --> 01:07:36,375
turning off fish

563
01:07:36,375 --> 01:07:37,416
finders and eco

564
01:07:37,416 --> 01:07:38,083
sounders to

565
01:07:38,083 --> 01:07:39,916
reduce noise even

566
01:07:39,916 --> 01:07:40,875
further, using

567
01:07:40,875 --> 01:07:41,833
whale spotting

568
01:07:41,833 --> 01:07:43,000
networks to avoid

569
01:07:43,333 --> 01:07:43,708
accidental

570
01:07:43,708 --> 01:07:45,291
disturbances. And

571
01:07:45,291 --> 01:07:45,791
the guidelines

572
01:07:45,791 --> 01:07:46,333
were promoted

573
01:07:46,333 --> 01:07:47,041
through onboard

574
01:07:47,041 --> 01:07:47,958
education by

575
01:07:47,958 --> 01:07:49,041
naturalists. They

576
01:07:49,041 --> 01:07:50,208
were they were

577
01:07:50,208 --> 01:07:51,000
promoted by

578
01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:51,541
outreach,

579
01:07:52,625 --> 01:07:53,208
promoted through

580
01:07:53,208 --> 01:07:54,333
outreach to

581
01:07:54,333 --> 01:07:55,000
private boaters

582
01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:56,291
and kayakers and

583
01:07:56,291 --> 01:07:57,166
partnerships with

584
01:07:57,166 --> 01:07:57,708
marinas,

585
01:07:57,875 --> 01:07:59,250
ferry operators

586
01:07:59,250 --> 01:08:00,250
and dive

587
01:08:00,250 --> 01:08:00,750
companies. So

588
01:08:00,750 --> 01:08:01,083
you're probably

589
01:08:01,083 --> 01:08:01,625
wondering like,

590
01:08:01,625 --> 01:08:02,166
okay, this is a

591
01:08:02,166 --> 01:08:03,291
lot of action and

592
01:08:03,291 --> 01:08:03,708
it worked.

593
01:08:04,083 --> 01:08:04,916
Why did it work?

594
01:08:04,916 --> 01:08:05,166
Because there was

595
01:08:05,166 --> 01:08:05,666
industry

596
01:08:05,666 --> 01:08:06,125
leadership,

597
01:08:06,541 --> 01:08:07,125
right? Always the

598
01:08:07,125 --> 01:08:07,791
industry always

599
01:08:07,791 --> 01:08:08,750
has to help and

600
01:08:08,750 --> 01:08:09,791
make sure that

601
01:08:09,791 --> 01:08:10,708
things are good.

602
01:08:11,333 --> 01:08:11,625
Whale watching

603
01:08:11,625 --> 01:08:12,750
companies led the

604
01:08:12,750 --> 01:08:13,625
charge, reducing

605
01:08:13,625 --> 01:08:15,291
opposition and

606
01:08:15,291 --> 01:08:15,625
building

607
01:08:15,625 --> 01:08:16,333
credibility,

608
01:08:17,041 --> 01:08:17,291
community

609
01:08:17,291 --> 01:08:18,125
engagement, the

610
01:08:18,125 --> 01:08:19,250
local pride in

611
01:08:19,250 --> 01:08:20,291
the whales and

612
01:08:20,291 --> 01:08:21,041
marine ecosystems

613
01:08:21,041 --> 01:08:21,750
fostered

614
01:08:22,125 --> 01:08:23,000
cooperation from

615
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:23,458
boats and

616
01:08:23,458 --> 01:08:24,291
residences. If

617
01:08:24,291 --> 01:08:24,833
you've ever seen

618
01:08:24,833 --> 01:08:25,625
videos when

619
01:08:26,208 --> 01:08:27,250
orcas are found

620
01:08:27,250 --> 01:08:28,250
in an area,

621
01:08:29,166 --> 01:08:30,000
you'll see a lot

622
01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:30,583
of people that

623
01:08:30,583 --> 01:08:31,458
are just posting

624
01:08:31,458 --> 01:08:31,916
it and they're

625
01:08:31,916 --> 01:08:32,625
actually going to

626
01:08:32,625 --> 01:08:33,000
see it. They're

627
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:33,625
taking time off

628
01:08:33,625 --> 01:08:34,166
of work.

629
01:08:34,166 --> 01:08:35,041
They're going out

630
01:08:35,041 --> 01:08:35,666
of their way,

631
01:08:35,666 --> 01:08:37,166
driving miles and

632
01:08:37,166 --> 01:08:38,750
kilometers to see

633
01:08:38,750 --> 01:08:39,750
these orcas. And

634
01:08:39,750 --> 01:08:40,500
when they do,

635
01:08:40,500 --> 01:08:41,041
they get

636
01:08:41,041 --> 01:08:41,875
emotional. There

637
01:08:41,875 --> 01:08:42,958
is a huge

638
01:08:43,416 --> 01:08:44,250
pride in the

639
01:08:44,250 --> 01:08:45,000
local community

640
01:08:45,000 --> 01:08:46,000
to not only

641
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:46,458
protecting

642
01:08:46,458 --> 01:08:47,500
these orcas,

643
01:08:47,916 --> 01:08:48,583
but also making

644
01:08:48,583 --> 01:08:49,583
sure that they

645
01:08:49,583 --> 01:08:50,125
get to see them

646
01:08:50,125 --> 01:08:50,708
as much as

647
01:08:50,708 --> 01:08:51,416
possible and get

648
01:08:51,416 --> 01:08:52,041
to know them as

649
01:08:52,041 --> 01:08:52,583
much as possible.

650
01:08:52,708 --> 01:08:53,708
If you saw the

651
01:08:53,708 --> 01:08:54,708
interview I did

652
01:08:54,708 --> 01:08:55,416
with Mark Laron

653
01:08:55,416 --> 01:08:56,250
Young, you can

654
01:08:56,250 --> 01:08:57,125
see how emotional

655
01:08:57,125 --> 01:08:58,458
he got when he

656
01:08:58,458 --> 01:08:59,250
talked about

657
01:08:59,625 --> 01:09:00,666
these orcas and

658
01:09:00,666 --> 01:09:01,500
just their

659
01:09:01,500 --> 01:09:02,083
characteristics

660
01:09:02,083 --> 01:09:02,875
and what they've

661
01:09:02,875 --> 01:09:03,583
been able to do

662
01:09:03,791 --> 01:09:04,333
in front of

663
01:09:04,333 --> 01:09:04,916
people and how

664
01:09:04,916 --> 01:09:05,375
people have been

665
01:09:05,375 --> 01:09:05,750
able to catch

666
01:09:05,750 --> 01:09:06,333
them doing some

667
01:09:06,333 --> 01:09:06,958
pretty amazing

668
01:09:06,958 --> 01:09:07,791
things. So

669
01:09:07,791 --> 01:09:08,250
something to

670
01:09:08,250 --> 01:09:09,000
check out.

671
01:09:09,791 --> 01:09:10,583
They've also had,

672
01:09:10,583 --> 01:09:10,708
were

673
01:09:10,708 --> 01:09:11,208
science-based.

674
01:09:11,458 --> 01:09:12,000
That's why it

675
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:12,333
worked, these

676
01:09:12,333 --> 01:09:12,791
guidelines. The

677
01:09:12,791 --> 01:09:13,166
guidelines were

678
01:09:13,166 --> 01:09:13,583
rooted in

679
01:09:13,583 --> 01:09:14,083
acoustic and

680
01:09:14,083 --> 01:09:14,416
behavioral

681
01:09:14,416 --> 01:09:14,916
research

682
01:09:14,916 --> 01:09:15,791
on orcas.

683
01:09:16,250 --> 01:09:16,500
And then there's

684
01:09:16,500 --> 01:09:17,333
a cross-border

685
01:09:17,916 --> 01:09:18,625
coordination. You

686
01:09:18,625 --> 01:09:19,333
heard me say that

687
01:09:19,333 --> 01:09:20,375
there's fisheries

688
01:09:20,375 --> 01:09:21,000
notions Canada

689
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:21,500
was involved.

690
01:09:21,791 --> 01:09:22,166
NOAA was

691
01:09:22,166 --> 01:09:22,875
involved. Parks

692
01:09:22,875 --> 01:09:23,375
Canada was

693
01:09:23,375 --> 01:09:23,750
involved.

694
01:09:24,083 --> 01:09:24,458
So since the

695
01:09:24,458 --> 01:09:25,666
Salish Sea spans

696
01:09:25,666 --> 01:09:26,875
the US and

697
01:09:26,875 --> 01:09:27,541
Canadian waters,

698
01:09:30,333 --> 01:09:32,125
collaboration was

699
01:09:32,125 --> 01:09:33,666
key. So B Whale

700
01:09:33,666 --> 01:09:34,500
Wise became a

701
01:09:34,500 --> 01:09:35,125
bi-national

702
01:09:35,125 --> 01:09:35,875
initiative.

703
01:09:35,875 --> 01:09:36,291
That's a huge

704
01:09:36,291 --> 01:09:36,875
thing. That takes

705
01:09:36,875 --> 01:09:37,666
a long time to

706
01:09:37,666 --> 01:09:38,208
put together.

707
01:09:38,666 --> 01:09:39,166
And being able to

708
01:09:39,166 --> 01:09:39,791
put that together

709
01:09:39,791 --> 01:09:40,833
was really great

710
01:09:40,833 --> 01:09:41,958
for this. So the

711
01:09:41,958 --> 01:09:42,666
success is the

712
01:09:42,666 --> 01:09:43,083
SoundWatch

713
01:09:43,083 --> 01:09:43,458
program

714
01:09:43,458 --> 01:09:44,125
documented,

715
01:09:44,125 --> 01:09:44,916
reduce close

716
01:09:44,916 --> 01:09:45,875
approaches and

717
01:09:45,875 --> 01:09:46,333
increase

718
01:09:46,333 --> 01:09:46,791
compliance

719
01:09:47,250 --> 01:09:47,833
by commercial

720
01:09:47,833 --> 01:09:48,500
operators over

721
01:09:48,500 --> 01:09:49,000
the last 20

722
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:49,625
years. The

723
01:09:49,625 --> 01:09:50,250
initiative helped

724
01:09:50,250 --> 01:09:51,083
influence the US

725
01:09:51,083 --> 01:09:52,458
federal and Washington state

726
01:09:52,458 --> 01:09:53,125
legislation,

727
01:09:53,458 --> 01:09:53,708
including

728
01:09:54,041 --> 01:09:54,791
a mandatory

729
01:09:54,791 --> 01:09:55,833
400-yard buffer

730
01:09:55,833 --> 01:09:57,833
zones for boats

731
01:09:57,833 --> 01:09:59,625
and orcas in 2021

732
01:09:59,625 --> 01:10:00,625
and temporary

733
01:10:00,625 --> 01:10:01,750
closures of whale

734
01:10:01,750 --> 01:10:02,291
foraging

735
01:10:02,291 --> 01:10:03,125
areas during

736
01:10:03,541 --> 01:10:04,291
these times.

737
01:10:04,916 --> 01:10:05,333
Canada adopted

738
01:10:05,333 --> 01:10:06,208
similar laws for

739
01:10:06,208 --> 01:10:06,958
vessel distance

740
01:10:06,958 --> 01:10:07,875
and speed zones

741
01:10:07,875 --> 01:10:08,458
in British

742
01:10:08,458 --> 01:10:08,875
Columbian

743
01:10:08,875 --> 01:10:09,916
waters and

744
01:10:10,208 --> 01:10:11,000
tourists were

745
01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:11,916
educated on board

746
01:10:11,916 --> 01:10:12,500
amplifying

747
01:10:12,500 --> 01:10:12,958
conservation

748
01:10:12,958 --> 01:10:14,250
messaging far

749
01:10:14,250 --> 01:10:14,666
beyond

750
01:10:14,666 --> 01:10:15,375
the region.

751
01:10:15,958 --> 01:10:17,125
This is a huge

752
01:10:17,125 --> 01:10:17,625
conservation

753
01:10:17,625 --> 01:10:18,541
success. There's

754
01:10:18,541 --> 01:10:18,916
only a certain

755
01:10:18,916 --> 01:10:19,416
amount of things

756
01:10:19,416 --> 01:10:20,500
you can do to

757
01:10:20,500 --> 01:10:20,833
help this

758
01:10:20,833 --> 01:10:21,333
population.

759
01:10:22,208 --> 01:10:22,666
And this is what

760
01:10:22,666 --> 01:10:23,500
they did. And it

761
01:10:23,500 --> 01:10:24,500
was industry led.

762
01:10:24,791 --> 01:10:25,291
It was science

763
01:10:25,291 --> 01:10:26,333
based. It was

764
01:10:26,333 --> 01:10:27,000
adopted.

765
01:10:27,375 --> 01:10:27,875
And then a lot of

766
01:10:27,875 --> 01:10:28,541
these measures

767
01:10:28,541 --> 01:10:29,500
were adopted by

768
01:10:29,500 --> 01:10:29,833
governments on

769
01:10:29,833 --> 01:10:31,125
both sides of the

770
01:10:31,125 --> 01:10:32,125
border. And that

771
01:10:32,125 --> 01:10:32,875
is cooperation.

772
01:10:33,166 --> 01:10:33,500
And again,

773
01:10:34,083 --> 01:10:34,875
industry led. It

774
01:10:34,875 --> 01:10:35,583
all started off

775
01:10:35,583 --> 01:10:35,875
with the

776
01:10:35,875 --> 01:10:36,166
industry. It all

777
01:10:36,166 --> 01:10:36,875
started off with

778
01:10:36,875 --> 01:10:38,041
the people. The

779
01:10:38,041 --> 01:10:38,541
government will

780
01:10:38,541 --> 01:10:39,458
follow what the

781
01:10:39,458 --> 01:10:39,833
people do.

782
01:10:39,833 --> 01:10:40,250
It may take them

783
01:10:40,250 --> 01:10:41,083
some time, but

784
01:10:41,083 --> 01:10:41,625
they will follow

785
01:10:41,625 --> 01:10:42,291
what the people

786
01:10:42,291 --> 01:10:43,000
want to do.

787
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:44,291
Here are some of

788
01:10:44,291 --> 01:10:44,666
the challenges

789
01:10:44,666 --> 01:10:45,208
because no

790
01:10:45,208 --> 01:10:45,916
project is

791
01:10:45,916 --> 01:10:46,958
perfect. Some of the

792
01:10:46,958 --> 01:10:48,125
challenges is private

793
01:10:48,125 --> 01:10:48,875
boater compliance

794
01:10:48,875 --> 01:10:49,625
remains

795
01:10:49,625 --> 01:10:50,500
inconsistent,

796
01:10:50,500 --> 01:10:51,250
especially during

797
01:10:51,250 --> 01:10:51,916
peak tourism

798
01:10:51,916 --> 01:10:52,458
months. This is

799
01:10:52,458 --> 01:10:52,958
going to be a

800
01:10:52,958 --> 01:10:53,500
long-term

801
01:10:53,500 --> 01:10:53,791
educational

802
01:10:53,791 --> 01:10:55,000
process that will

803
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:55,875
make sure that

804
01:10:55,875 --> 01:10:57,000
over the long

805
01:10:57,000 --> 01:10:58,083
term people will

806
01:10:58,083 --> 01:10:59,500
not only be

807
01:10:59,500 --> 01:11:00,000
compliant,

808
01:11:00,458 --> 01:11:01,166
but also be

809
01:11:01,166 --> 01:11:02,708
enforced by other

810
01:11:02,708 --> 01:11:03,000
community

811
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:03,666
members. That

812
01:11:03,666 --> 01:11:04,000
will be

813
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:04,375
interesting. And

814
01:11:04,375 --> 01:11:04,708
enforcement

815
01:11:04,708 --> 01:11:05,500
resources, speaking

816
01:11:05,500 --> 01:11:05,916
of which,

817
01:11:06,125 --> 01:11:06,750
are limited,

818
01:11:07,041 --> 01:11:07,791
especially across

819
01:11:07,791 --> 01:11:09,083
a wide marina

820
01:11:09,083 --> 01:11:10,083
area or marine

821
01:11:10,083 --> 01:11:10,791
area. So that's

822
01:11:10,791 --> 01:11:11,416
very difficult.

823
01:11:11,500 --> 01:11:12,291
But you have

824
01:11:12,291 --> 01:11:12,750
people in the

825
01:11:12,750 --> 01:11:13,375
water all the

826
01:11:13,375 --> 01:11:13,875
time. You have

827
01:11:13,875 --> 01:11:14,375
people who are

828
01:11:14,375 --> 01:11:14,708
friends with

829
01:11:14,708 --> 01:11:15,375
other boaters and

830
01:11:15,375 --> 01:11:15,916
they make sure

831
01:11:16,208 --> 01:11:17,250
that they will

832
01:11:17,250 --> 01:11:18,666
behave over time.

833
01:11:18,666 --> 01:11:19,208
And as long as

834
01:11:19,208 --> 01:11:19,875
this continued

835
01:11:19,875 --> 01:11:20,750
with this

836
01:11:20,750 --> 01:11:21,791
approach, we'll

837
01:11:21,791 --> 01:11:22,333
see better

838
01:11:22,333 --> 01:11:23,000
behavior,

839
01:11:23,250 --> 01:11:23,500
hopefully

840
01:11:23,500 --> 01:11:24,250
over time.

841
01:11:24,958 --> 01:11:25,333
Noise pollution

842
01:11:25,333 --> 01:11:26,083
from commercial

843
01:11:26,083 --> 01:11:26,958
shipping and

844
01:11:26,958 --> 01:11:28,083
ferries remains a

845
01:11:28,083 --> 01:11:28,708
problem beyond

846
01:11:28,708 --> 01:11:29,291
whale watching

847
01:11:29,291 --> 01:11:30,250
industry. Now,

848
01:11:30,250 --> 01:11:30,875
there have been

849
01:11:30,875 --> 01:11:31,583
some projects,

850
01:11:32,041 --> 01:11:32,541
some pilot

851
01:11:32,541 --> 01:11:33,250
studies really

852
01:11:33,250 --> 01:11:34,416
that have worked

853
01:11:34,416 --> 01:11:35,416
with shipping

854
01:11:35,416 --> 01:11:36,375
industries to

855
01:11:36,375 --> 01:11:37,041
reduce noise

856
01:11:37,041 --> 01:11:37,833
within the San

857
01:11:37,833 --> 01:11:38,208
Juan Islands

858
01:11:38,750 --> 01:11:39,916
and other places

859
01:11:39,916 --> 01:11:40,833
like within Puget

860
01:11:40,833 --> 01:11:41,833
Sound. And so

861
01:11:41,833 --> 01:11:42,791
that is still

862
01:11:42,791 --> 01:11:43,708
something that

863
01:11:43,708 --> 01:11:44,250
needs to be

864
01:11:44,250 --> 01:11:45,041
determined even

865
01:11:45,041 --> 01:11:45,666
more. So

866
01:11:46,125 --> 01:11:47,083
something that we

867
01:11:47,083 --> 01:11:48,208
want to keep a

868
01:11:48,208 --> 01:11:49,083
close eye on, we

869
01:11:49,083 --> 01:11:49,750
want to make sure

870
01:11:49,750 --> 01:11:50,375
that we are

871
01:11:50,375 --> 01:11:51,000
working with all

872
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:51,333
boaters,

873
01:11:51,333 --> 01:11:51,833
not just whale

874
01:11:51,833 --> 01:11:52,500
watching boats,

875
01:11:52,833 --> 01:11:53,500
but we want to

876
01:11:53,500 --> 01:11:53,916
work with all

877
01:11:53,916 --> 01:11:55,041
types of ships to

878
01:11:55,041 --> 01:11:55,375
make sure

879
01:11:55,375 --> 01:11:56,208
that we protect

880
01:11:56,458 --> 01:11:57,583
this very, very

881
01:11:57,583 --> 01:11:58,000
critically

882
01:11:58,000 --> 01:11:58,625
endangered

883
01:11:58,625 --> 01:12:00,416
population. So

884
01:12:00,416 --> 01:12:01,166
the legacy and

885
01:12:01,166 --> 01:12:01,750
the next steps

886
01:12:01,750 --> 01:12:02,083
for this

887
01:12:02,125 --> 01:12:02,625
conservation

888
01:12:02,625 --> 01:12:03,875
initiative and

889
01:12:03,875 --> 01:12:05,125
project, the B

890
01:12:05,125 --> 01:12:06,208
Whale Wise model

891
01:12:06,208 --> 01:12:07,458
is now studied as

892
01:12:07,458 --> 01:12:08,250
a template for

893
01:12:08,250 --> 01:12:08,791
community-led marine

894
01:12:08,791 --> 01:12:09,875
stewardship,

895
01:12:09,875 --> 01:12:10,500
which is great to

896
01:12:10,500 --> 01:12:11,583
see. The program

897
01:12:11,583 --> 01:12:12,333
continues to

898
01:12:12,333 --> 01:12:14,125
evolve with the

899
01:12:14,125 --> 01:12:14,750
input of

900
01:12:14,750 --> 01:12:16,000
scientists, indigenous

901
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:16,541
nations,

902
01:12:17,125 --> 01:12:17,916
and the tourism

903
01:12:17,916 --> 01:12:19,000
sector. And then

904
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:19,666
a growing number

905
01:12:19,666 --> 01:12:20,708
of kayak guides,

906
01:12:20,916 --> 01:12:21,041
drone

907
01:12:21,041 --> 01:12:21,916
operators, and

908
01:12:22,291 --> 01:12:23,000
paddle boarders

909
01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:23,583
are also being

910
01:12:23,583 --> 01:12:24,875
brought into this

911
01:12:24,875 --> 01:12:26,041
fold. And the

912
01:12:26,041 --> 01:12:27,625
whale warning

913
01:12:27,833 --> 01:12:28,625
flying system

914
01:12:28,625 --> 01:12:29,416
introduced more

915
01:12:29,416 --> 01:12:30,625
recently alerts

916
01:12:30,625 --> 01:12:32,333
nearby vessels to

917
01:12:32,333 --> 01:12:34,250
whale presence in

918
01:12:34,250 --> 01:12:35,208
real time. So the

919
01:12:35,208 --> 01:12:36,041
takeaway of this

920
01:12:36,041 --> 01:12:36,708
story is it shows

921
01:12:36,708 --> 01:12:37,166
that local

922
01:12:37,166 --> 01:12:38,125
stewards within

923
01:12:38,125 --> 01:12:38,708
an industry

924
01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:39,833
can recognize

925
01:12:39,833 --> 01:12:41,083
their impact, can

926
01:12:41,083 --> 01:12:41,875
mobilize their

927
01:12:41,875 --> 01:12:43,125
peers, and can

928
01:12:43,125 --> 01:12:43,791
drive behavior

929
01:12:43,791 --> 01:12:44,833
change that

930
01:12:44,833 --> 01:12:46,000
spreads to a

931
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:47,083
regional policy

932
01:12:47,083 --> 01:12:48,208
and political

933
01:12:48,208 --> 01:12:48,875
norms or

934
01:12:48,875 --> 01:12:49,458
public norms.

935
01:12:49,958 --> 01:12:50,458
This is something

936
01:12:50,458 --> 01:12:51,708
that it's a case

937
01:12:51,708 --> 01:12:52,375
of basically a

938
01:12:52,375 --> 01:12:53,291
voluntary action

939
01:12:53,291 --> 01:12:54,208
influencing legal

940
01:12:54,208 --> 01:12:56,208
frameworks and a

941
01:12:56,208 --> 01:12:56,791
small island

942
01:12:56,791 --> 01:12:57,166
communities

943
01:12:57,166 --> 01:12:58,166
protecting the

944
01:12:58,166 --> 01:12:58,916
giants of

945
01:12:58,916 --> 01:12:59,250
the sea.

946
01:12:59,625 --> 01:13:00,125
It can happen,

947
01:13:00,125 --> 01:13:00,791
folks. It can

948
01:13:00,791 --> 01:13:01,833
happen. And we

949
01:13:01,833 --> 01:13:02,375
are seeing it

950
01:13:02,375 --> 01:13:03,625
happen in front

951
01:13:03,625 --> 01:13:04,750
of our eyes. We

952
01:13:04,750 --> 01:13:05,583
know that this is

953
01:13:05,583 --> 01:13:06,208
something that

954
01:13:06,208 --> 01:13:07,250
needs to continue

955
01:13:07,250 --> 01:13:07,875
to be addressed,

956
01:13:08,166 --> 01:13:08,458
but it's

957
01:13:08,458 --> 01:13:09,166
something that we

958
01:13:09,166 --> 01:13:10,125
are going to look

959
01:13:10,125 --> 01:13:10,708
out for.

960
01:13:10,708 --> 01:13:11,125
And I want to

961
01:13:11,125 --> 01:13:11,958
make sure that we

962
01:13:11,958 --> 01:13:13,791
are documenting

963
01:13:13,791 --> 01:13:14,666
it, right? That's

964
01:13:14,666 --> 01:13:15,000
the biggest

965
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:15,958
thing. Okay,

966
01:13:16,125 --> 01:13:17,500
let's move on to

967
01:13:17,500 --> 01:13:18,583
the next story.

968
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:19,458
This one's going

969
01:13:19,458 --> 01:13:19,958
to be a quick

970
01:13:19,958 --> 01:13:21,791
one. I saw this

971
01:13:21,791 --> 01:13:22,625
on TikTok as I

972
01:13:22,625 --> 01:13:23,000
was scrolling

973
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:23,500
through and I was

974
01:13:23,500 --> 01:13:24,291
like, look, I was

975
01:13:24,291 --> 01:13:25,416
like, you know,

976
01:13:25,458 --> 01:13:26,750
when you're in

977
01:13:26,750 --> 01:13:27,416
the ocean, you've

978
01:13:27,416 --> 01:13:27,708
got to be

979
01:13:27,708 --> 01:13:28,458
responsible and

980
01:13:28,458 --> 01:13:28,916
you've got to be

981
01:13:28,916 --> 01:13:29,291
careful.

982
01:13:29,708 --> 01:13:30,541
There are a lot

983
01:13:30,541 --> 01:13:31,500
of videos of

984
01:13:31,500 --> 01:13:32,833
sharks out there

985
01:13:32,833 --> 01:13:33,125
that are

986
01:13:33,125 --> 01:13:34,000
beautiful videos

987
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:34,625
of sharks, people

988
01:13:34,625 --> 01:13:35,375
keeping their

989
01:13:35,375 --> 01:13:36,208
distance, seeing

990
01:13:36,208 --> 01:13:36,916
behaviors of

991
01:13:36,916 --> 01:13:38,000
sharks that are

992
01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:38,958
non aggressive,

993
01:13:39,875 --> 01:13:40,708
might be avoiding

994
01:13:40,708 --> 01:13:41,166
sometimes

995
01:13:41,166 --> 01:13:41,625
swimming away.

996
01:13:41,625 --> 01:13:41,916
If they're

997
01:13:41,916 --> 01:13:42,416
swimming away,

998
01:13:42,416 --> 01:13:43,166
leave them alone.

999
01:13:43,541 --> 01:13:43,791
If they're

1000
01:13:43,791 --> 01:13:44,375
swimming towards

1001
01:13:44,375 --> 01:13:44,875
you, take

1002
01:13:44,875 --> 01:13:45,833
precautions and

1003
01:13:45,833 --> 01:13:46,500
so forth. This is

1004
01:13:46,500 --> 01:13:47,833
not for everybody

1005
01:13:47,833 --> 01:13:48,250
being

1006
01:13:48,250 --> 01:13:49,041
around a shark.

1007
01:13:49,041 --> 01:13:49,500
A lot of times

1008
01:13:49,500 --> 01:13:50,000
when you see

1009
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:50,666
people in videos,

1010
01:13:50,666 --> 01:13:50,916
they've been

1011
01:13:50,916 --> 01:13:52,166
around sharks for

1012
01:13:52,166 --> 01:13:53,125
a long time and

1013
01:13:53,125 --> 01:13:53,791
they know the

1014
01:13:53,791 --> 01:13:54,708
risks, but they

1015
01:13:54,708 --> 01:13:55,291
also know how to

1016
01:13:55,291 --> 01:13:56,000
behave around

1017
01:13:56,000 --> 01:13:56,583
sharks in

1018
01:13:56,583 --> 01:13:57,500
different types

1019
01:13:57,500 --> 01:13:58,875
of behaviors that

1020
01:13:58,875 --> 01:13:59,500
they exhibit.

1021
01:13:59,500 --> 01:13:59,875
If they're more

1022
01:13:59,875 --> 01:14:00,333
aggressive, they

1023
01:14:00,333 --> 01:14:00,916
know what to do.

1024
01:14:01,125 --> 01:14:01,416
They're less

1025
01:14:01,416 --> 01:14:01,875
aggressive, they

1026
01:14:01,875 --> 01:14:02,250
know what to do

1027
01:14:02,250 --> 01:14:02,916
and they know not

1028
01:14:02,916 --> 01:14:03,708
to prod and poke

1029
01:14:03,708 --> 01:14:04,458
for most part.

1030
01:14:04,833 --> 01:14:05,500
So you have to be

1031
01:14:05,500 --> 01:14:06,208
careful if you're

1032
01:14:06,208 --> 01:14:06,958
not somebody

1033
01:14:06,958 --> 01:14:07,583
who's been around

1034
01:14:07,583 --> 01:14:08,083
sharks for a long

1035
01:14:08,083 --> 01:14:08,791
time to be

1036
01:14:08,791 --> 01:14:09,250
careful and just

1037
01:14:09,250 --> 01:14:10,041
stay away and

1038
01:14:10,041 --> 01:14:10,625
don't touch.

1039
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:11,708
Obviously, that's

1040
01:14:11,708 --> 01:14:12,208
something that

1041
01:14:12,208 --> 01:14:13,083
every scuba diver

1042
01:14:13,083 --> 01:14:13,916
knows everybody

1043
01:14:13,916 --> 01:14:14,416
should

1044
01:14:14,416 --> 01:14:15,416
know as well.

1045
01:14:15,708 --> 01:14:15,916
All right. I

1046
01:14:15,916 --> 01:14:17,000
wanted to just

1047
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:18,875
kind of look at a

1048
01:14:18,875 --> 01:14:19,750
video. There's no

1049
01:14:19,750 --> 01:14:20,166
sound on

1050
01:14:20,166 --> 01:14:20,666
this video.

1051
01:14:20,666 --> 01:14:21,250
Well, there's

1052
01:14:21,250 --> 01:14:22,000
probably music on

1053
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:22,375
it, but there's

1054
01:14:22,375 --> 01:14:23,458
no sound. It says

1055
01:14:23,458 --> 01:14:24,083
here shark

1056
01:14:24,083 --> 01:14:25,000
attacks jet ski.

1057
01:14:25,541 --> 01:14:26,291
And so when I see

1058
01:14:26,291 --> 01:14:27,708
this, I'm already

1059
01:14:27,708 --> 01:14:30,500
very curious of

1060
01:14:30,500 --> 01:14:30,916
what's

1061
01:14:30,916 --> 01:14:31,458
happening here.

1062
01:14:31,875 --> 01:14:32,708
Sharks just don't

1063
01:14:32,708 --> 01:14:33,916
go and attack jet

1064
01:14:33,916 --> 01:14:35,166
skis on its own.

1065
01:14:35,541 --> 01:14:37,000
Sharks will react

1066
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:37,208
to

1067
01:14:37,208 --> 01:14:37,791
certain things.

1068
01:14:38,500 --> 01:14:39,166
And when I saw

1069
01:14:39,166 --> 01:14:39,666
this, when I

1070
01:14:39,666 --> 01:14:40,041
initially saw

1071
01:14:40,041 --> 01:14:40,708
this, I was like,

1072
01:14:40,708 --> 01:14:41,541
I have a feeling

1073
01:14:41,541 --> 01:14:42,541
this is not a

1074
01:14:42,541 --> 01:14:43,875
shark attack or

1075
01:14:43,875 --> 01:14:44,458
shark event.

1076
01:14:44,916 --> 01:14:45,291
So let's just

1077
01:14:45,291 --> 01:14:46,041
take a look and

1078
01:14:46,041 --> 01:14:47,041
see what this is

1079
01:14:47,041 --> 01:14:47,666
all about.

1080
01:14:48,583 --> 01:14:49,375
And I want to I

1081
01:14:49,375 --> 01:14:49,791
want to kind of

1082
01:14:49,791 --> 01:14:50,416
talk about it

1083
01:14:50,416 --> 01:14:51,333
right after just

1084
01:14:51,333 --> 01:14:52,375
what not to do

1085
01:14:52,375 --> 01:14:53,000
around a shark.

1086
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:53,500
If you see a

1087
01:14:53,500 --> 01:14:54,083
shark in the

1088
01:14:54,083 --> 01:14:54,500
ocean, this is

1089
01:14:54,500 --> 01:14:55,000
obviously a very

1090
01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:55,666
shallow area in

1091
01:14:55,666 --> 01:14:56,500
the ocean, very

1092
01:14:56,500 --> 01:14:57,083
clear water.

1093
01:14:57,541 --> 01:14:57,958
You can see that

1094
01:14:57,958 --> 01:14:58,541
this is a shark.

1095
01:14:58,750 --> 01:14:59,291
And here we go.

1096
01:15:00,875 --> 01:15:01,500
So he's got a jet

1097
01:15:01,500 --> 01:15:02,500
ski. He's in and

1098
01:15:02,500 --> 01:15:03,250
around the shark.

1099
01:15:03,250 --> 01:15:03,708
He's following

1100
01:15:03,708 --> 01:15:04,375
the shark sharks

1101
01:15:04,375 --> 01:15:04,625
trying to

1102
01:15:04,625 --> 01:15:05,125
get away.

1103
01:15:05,333 --> 01:15:05,916
It's pretty big

1104
01:15:05,916 --> 01:15:07,500
shark and it goes

1105
01:15:07,500 --> 01:15:09,125
after the boat or

1106
01:15:09,125 --> 01:15:09,750
it goes after the

1107
01:15:09,750 --> 01:15:10,500
jet ski and watch

1108
01:15:10,500 --> 01:15:11,083
it again.

1109
01:15:11,541 --> 01:15:12,250
Again, moving

1110
01:15:12,250 --> 01:15:13,333
away from the

1111
01:15:13,333 --> 01:15:14,500
ship or from the

1112
01:15:14,500 --> 01:15:15,083
jet ski

1113
01:15:15,083 --> 01:15:15,791
coming close.

1114
01:15:16,750 --> 01:15:16,958
Yeah, you're

1115
01:15:16,958 --> 01:15:17,458
annoying the

1116
01:15:17,458 --> 01:15:18,000
shark. Let's

1117
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:18,208
watch it

1118
01:15:18,208 --> 01:15:19,000
one more time.

1119
01:15:19,416 --> 01:15:20,208
You know, don't

1120
01:15:20,208 --> 01:15:21,125
annoy big sharks.

1121
01:15:21,416 --> 01:15:21,750
Don't annoy

1122
01:15:21,750 --> 01:15:22,708
sharks at all.

1123
01:15:22,750 --> 01:15:23,291
You're following

1124
01:15:23,291 --> 01:15:24,333
this with a loud

1125
01:15:24,333 --> 01:15:26,291
boat and people

1126
01:15:26,291 --> 01:15:28,208
just people don't

1127
01:15:28,208 --> 01:15:28,958
like jet skis.

1128
01:15:28,958 --> 01:15:29,458
And this shark

1129
01:15:29,458 --> 01:15:29,916
definitely

1130
01:15:29,916 --> 01:15:30,791
doesn't like the

1131
01:15:30,791 --> 01:15:31,666
jet ski. So I

1132
01:15:31,666 --> 01:15:32,041
want to share

1133
01:15:32,041 --> 01:15:32,625
that with you of

1134
01:15:32,625 --> 01:15:33,083
what not to

1135
01:15:33,083 --> 01:15:33,625
do sharks.

1136
01:15:33,625 --> 01:15:34,000
And that's not a

1137
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:34,500
shark attack.

1138
01:15:34,500 --> 01:15:34,958
This is a shark

1139
01:15:34,958 --> 01:15:35,833
defending itself

1140
01:15:35,833 --> 01:15:37,083
and just be

1141
01:15:37,083 --> 01:15:38,375
better around

1142
01:15:38,375 --> 01:15:39,208
around sharks.

1143
01:15:39,458 --> 01:15:39,875
That's really

1144
01:15:39,875 --> 01:15:41,000
what it comes

1145
01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:41,666
down to is you

1146
01:15:41,666 --> 01:15:42,166
just you just

1147
01:15:42,166 --> 01:15:43,708
have to be better

1148
01:15:43,708 --> 01:15:44,916
and act better

1149
01:15:44,916 --> 01:15:45,916
and act more

1150
01:15:45,916 --> 01:15:47,166
responsible when

1151
01:15:47,166 --> 01:15:47,500
you're

1152
01:15:47,500 --> 01:15:48,250
around sharks.

1153
01:15:48,291 --> 01:15:49,583
OK, now we are

1154
01:15:49,583 --> 01:15:50,375
going to go into

1155
01:15:50,375 --> 01:15:51,000
I want to show

1156
01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:51,833
the trailer. I

1157
01:15:51,833 --> 01:15:52,208
don't know if I

1158
01:15:52,208 --> 01:15:53,083
have the rights

1159
01:15:53,083 --> 01:15:53,708
to show the

1160
01:15:53,708 --> 01:15:54,125
trailer.

1161
01:15:54,125 --> 01:15:54,750
So hopefully they

1162
01:15:54,750 --> 01:15:55,250
don't take this

1163
01:15:55,250 --> 01:15:56,416
down. But I

1164
01:15:56,416 --> 01:15:57,083
wanted to show

1165
01:15:57,083 --> 01:15:57,541
part of the

1166
01:15:57,541 --> 01:15:58,416
trailer, at least

1167
01:15:58,416 --> 01:16:01,041
for the David,

1168
01:16:01,500 --> 01:16:01,750
the David

1169
01:16:01,750 --> 01:16:02,250
Attenborough

1170
01:16:02,250 --> 01:16:03,166
movie Ocean.

1171
01:16:03,166 --> 01:16:03,708
He turned ninety

1172
01:16:03,708 --> 01:16:04,541
nine this week.

1173
01:16:04,958 --> 01:16:05,375
So it's pretty

1174
01:16:05,375 --> 01:16:06,125
cool. So here we

1175
01:16:06,125 --> 01:16:06,625
go. We're going

1176
01:16:06,625 --> 01:16:07,416
to just kind of

1177
01:16:07,416 --> 01:16:08,583
talk about it.

1178
01:16:08,583 --> 01:16:08,958
We're going to

1179
01:16:08,958 --> 01:16:09,750
see what this is

1180
01:16:09,750 --> 01:16:12,791
all about. So

1181
01:16:12,791 --> 01:16:13,333
here I'm actually

1182
01:16:13,333 --> 01:16:13,750
not going to

1183
01:16:13,750 --> 01:16:14,125
allow the

1184
01:16:14,125 --> 01:16:14,625
sound plays.

1185
01:16:14,625 --> 01:16:15,083
I don't know if

1186
01:16:15,083 --> 01:16:15,500
I'm allowed to

1187
01:16:15,500 --> 01:16:16,208
play this, but

1188
01:16:16,208 --> 01:16:18,125
this is just the

1189
01:16:18,125 --> 01:16:18,750
trailer. You can

1190
01:16:18,750 --> 01:16:19,291
go see it. I'll

1191
01:16:19,291 --> 01:16:20,000
link to it in the

1192
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:20,500
show notes,

1193
01:16:20,750 --> 01:16:21,750
showing a lot of

1194
01:16:21,750 --> 01:16:22,625
beautiful images,

1195
01:16:22,875 --> 01:16:23,541
talking about

1196
01:16:23,541 --> 01:16:24,166
some of the

1197
01:16:24,166 --> 01:16:25,041
problems here.

1198
01:16:25,625 --> 01:16:25,916
And I'm going to

1199
01:16:25,916 --> 01:16:26,333
stop here because

1200
01:16:26,333 --> 01:16:26,833
I really don't

1201
01:16:26,833 --> 01:16:27,416
think I'm allowed

1202
01:16:27,416 --> 01:16:28,458
to play this, but

1203
01:16:28,458 --> 01:16:28,833
we'll see.

1204
01:16:29,083 --> 01:16:30,166
But anyway, what

1205
01:16:30,166 --> 01:16:31,625
this talks about

1206
01:16:31,625 --> 01:16:33,000
in this in the

1207
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:34,083
movie, a big part

1208
01:16:34,083 --> 01:16:35,083
of this come out

1209
01:16:35,083 --> 01:16:35,625
of the movie

1210
01:16:35,625 --> 01:16:36,416
because it was

1211
01:16:36,416 --> 01:16:37,041
originally aired

1212
01:16:37,041 --> 01:16:39,041
May 8 in the U.K.

1213
01:16:39,791 --> 01:16:41,250
Was really about

1214
01:16:41,250 --> 01:16:43,041
trolley. There

1215
01:16:43,041 --> 01:16:44,166
was a lot on on

1216
01:16:44,166 --> 01:16:44,666
trolley. There

1217
01:16:44,666 --> 01:16:45,166
was a there was

1218
01:16:45,166 --> 01:16:46,958
an incident or a

1219
01:16:46,958 --> 01:16:47,791
scene in the

1220
01:16:47,791 --> 01:16:49,000
movie where the

1221
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:50,625
troll shows it

1222
01:16:50,625 --> 01:16:50,916
actually

1223
01:16:50,916 --> 01:16:51,291
functioning.

1224
01:16:51,625 --> 01:16:51,958
And essentially,

1225
01:16:51,958 --> 01:16:52,708
if you don't know

1226
01:16:52,708 --> 01:16:53,750
what a troll is,

1227
01:16:54,500 --> 01:16:56,666
it is a net, a

1228
01:16:56,666 --> 01:16:58,000
huge net that has

1229
01:16:58,000 --> 01:16:59,208
an opening and

1230
01:16:59,208 --> 01:17:00,000
strings that are

1231
01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:00,250
attached

1232
01:17:00,250 --> 01:17:00,875
to the boat.

1233
01:17:01,416 --> 01:17:02,000
And then when it

1234
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:02,833
is laid out, it's

1235
01:17:02,833 --> 01:17:03,500
got these boards

1236
01:17:03,500 --> 01:17:05,208
on the bottom and

1237
01:17:05,208 --> 01:17:06,166
those boards and

1238
01:17:06,166 --> 01:17:06,708
then a chain

1239
01:17:06,708 --> 01:17:07,416
along that is

1240
01:17:07,416 --> 01:17:08,000
attaching those

1241
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:08,583
boards and those

1242
01:17:08,583 --> 01:17:09,000
go along

1243
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:09,333
the bottom.

1244
01:17:09,375 --> 01:17:09,916
So when it gets

1245
01:17:09,916 --> 01:17:10,541
released, it goes

1246
01:17:10,541 --> 01:17:11,041
to the on the

1247
01:17:11,041 --> 01:17:12,041
bottom on the

1248
01:17:12,041 --> 01:17:12,916
ground, the sea

1249
01:17:12,916 --> 01:17:14,000
floor, usually in

1250
01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:14,458
a shallow area,

1251
01:17:14,458 --> 01:17:15,000
sometimes in a

1252
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:15,583
deeper area.

1253
01:17:15,916 --> 01:17:16,083
And then

1254
01:17:16,083 --> 01:17:16,458
essentially what

1255
01:17:16,458 --> 01:17:17,041
happens is those

1256
01:17:17,041 --> 01:17:17,708
doors give it

1257
01:17:17,708 --> 01:17:18,208
weight, the

1258
01:17:18,208 --> 01:17:19,541
chain. And as the

1259
01:17:19,541 --> 01:17:20,125
boat moves, it

1260
01:17:20,125 --> 01:17:21,291
just scrapes

1261
01:17:21,291 --> 01:17:22,333
along the ocean

1262
01:17:22,333 --> 01:17:23,500
and the

1263
01:17:23,500 --> 01:17:24,000
ocean bottom.

1264
01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:24,375
And it just

1265
01:17:24,375 --> 01:17:24,916
destroys

1266
01:17:24,916 --> 01:17:26,000
everything that's

1267
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:26,708
that's underneath

1268
01:17:26,708 --> 01:17:27,375
it or that's in

1269
01:17:27,375 --> 01:17:28,041
its pathway,

1270
01:17:28,416 --> 01:17:29,625
ideally bringing

1271
01:17:29,625 --> 01:17:31,083
fish into the net

1272
01:17:31,083 --> 01:17:31,791
and is catching

1273
01:17:31,791 --> 01:17:32,541
indiscriminately

1274
01:17:32,541 --> 01:17:34,041
fish or fish

1275
01:17:34,041 --> 01:17:34,666
indiscriminately.

1276
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:35,750
It can catch sea

1277
01:17:35,750 --> 01:17:36,458
turtles. It can

1278
01:17:36,458 --> 01:17:37,583
catch dolphins.

1279
01:17:37,833 --> 01:17:38,375
It can catch a

1280
01:17:38,375 --> 01:17:38,958
lot of things.

1281
01:17:39,958 --> 01:17:40,958
And we just you

1282
01:17:40,958 --> 01:17:41,416
know, you never

1283
01:17:41,416 --> 01:17:41,875
know what you're

1284
01:17:41,875 --> 01:17:42,333
going to catch.

1285
01:17:42,333 --> 01:17:42,625
There have been

1286
01:17:42,625 --> 01:17:43,291
sea lions in

1287
01:17:43,291 --> 01:17:43,625
there. There have

1288
01:17:43,625 --> 01:17:44,375
been sharks in

1289
01:17:44,375 --> 01:17:45,083
there, all

1290
01:17:45,083 --> 01:17:45,583
different sizes,

1291
01:17:45,666 --> 01:17:46,333
whale sharks,

1292
01:17:46,666 --> 01:17:47,041
depending on the

1293
01:17:47,041 --> 01:17:47,750
size of the net.

1294
01:17:48,333 --> 01:17:49,166
And then it

1295
01:17:49,166 --> 01:17:49,791
brings it up and

1296
01:17:49,791 --> 01:17:50,500
then people sift

1297
01:17:50,500 --> 01:17:51,000
through it and

1298
01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:51,583
they get rid of

1299
01:17:51,583 --> 01:17:52,125
what they don't

1300
01:17:52,125 --> 01:17:52,708
want and what

1301
01:17:52,708 --> 01:17:53,000
they call

1302
01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:53,541
bycatch.

1303
01:17:54,333 --> 01:17:55,041
And then they go

1304
01:17:55,041 --> 01:17:55,500
and then they

1305
01:17:55,500 --> 01:17:56,250
leave. They keep

1306
01:17:56,250 --> 01:17:56,625
whatever they

1307
01:17:56,625 --> 01:17:56,916
want and

1308
01:17:56,916 --> 01:17:57,208
they leave.

1309
01:17:57,250 --> 01:17:57,750
But a lot of

1310
01:17:57,750 --> 01:17:58,125
stuff that they

1311
01:17:58,125 --> 01:17:58,666
throw over the

1312
01:17:58,666 --> 01:17:59,583
bycatch end up

1313
01:17:59,583 --> 01:18:00,500
dying on either

1314
01:18:00,500 --> 01:18:01,166
on the way up,

1315
01:18:01,166 --> 01:18:01,625
depending on how

1316
01:18:01,625 --> 01:18:03,208
deep it is or as

1317
01:18:03,208 --> 01:18:03,875
they're just on

1318
01:18:03,875 --> 01:18:04,666
the getting

1319
01:18:04,666 --> 01:18:05,458
sifted through a

1320
01:18:05,458 --> 01:18:06,041
way to get sifted

1321
01:18:06,041 --> 01:18:06,416
through and

1322
01:18:06,416 --> 01:18:07,250
thrown overboard.

1323
01:18:07,583 --> 01:18:08,166
So it's very

1324
01:18:08,166 --> 01:18:08,541
destructive

1325
01:18:08,541 --> 01:18:09,333
fishing. It's

1326
01:18:09,333 --> 01:18:09,541
something

1327
01:18:09,541 --> 01:18:09,833
especially

1328
01:18:09,833 --> 01:18:10,500
in the UK.

1329
01:18:10,500 --> 01:18:11,083
They're trying to

1330
01:18:11,083 --> 01:18:11,750
get banned

1331
01:18:11,750 --> 01:18:12,875
because up until

1332
01:18:12,875 --> 01:18:13,333
recently,

1333
01:18:13,541 --> 01:18:13,875
trawling was

1334
01:18:13,875 --> 01:18:14,750
allowed in the

1335
01:18:14,750 --> 01:18:15,333
marine protected

1336
01:18:15,333 --> 01:18:15,791
areas, which

1337
01:18:15,791 --> 01:18:16,666
doesn't really

1338
01:18:16,666 --> 01:18:17,375
protect anything

1339
01:18:17,375 --> 01:18:18,208
in that area.

1340
01:18:18,208 --> 01:18:18,833
If you're trying

1341
01:18:18,833 --> 01:18:19,416
to destroy the

1342
01:18:19,416 --> 01:18:20,250
bottom, it will

1343
01:18:20,250 --> 01:18:20,833
take basically a

1344
01:18:20,833 --> 01:18:21,458
swath of couple

1345
01:18:21,458 --> 01:18:21,958
of kilometers.

1346
01:18:22,666 --> 01:18:24,625
That's maybe 20

1347
01:18:24,625 --> 01:18:25,708
feet wide, you

1348
01:18:25,708 --> 01:18:26,000
know, something

1349
01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:27,333
like that. Nine,

1350
01:18:27,333 --> 01:18:28,333
nine meters wide,

1351
01:18:28,333 --> 01:18:28,833
maybe a little,

1352
01:18:28,833 --> 01:18:29,166
maybe a

1353
01:18:29,166 --> 01:18:29,583
little less.

1354
01:18:30,208 --> 01:18:31,166
And and it'll

1355
01:18:31,166 --> 01:18:31,625
just take these

1356
01:18:31,625 --> 01:18:32,541
strips out of the

1357
01:18:32,541 --> 01:18:32,916
habitat.

1358
01:18:32,916 --> 01:18:33,166
And if you

1359
01:18:33,166 --> 01:18:34,333
continue to trawl

1360
01:18:34,333 --> 01:18:34,916
over the same

1361
01:18:34,916 --> 01:18:35,958
habitat, you're

1362
01:18:35,958 --> 01:18:36,541
going to destroy

1363
01:18:36,541 --> 01:18:37,083
a lot of things.

1364
01:18:37,083 --> 01:18:37,375
It's not just

1365
01:18:37,375 --> 01:18:37,791
going to be one

1366
01:18:37,791 --> 01:18:38,416
pathway. It's

1367
01:18:38,416 --> 01:18:39,166
going to be a lot

1368
01:18:39,166 --> 01:18:39,625
of things.

1369
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:40,250
So that's

1370
01:18:40,250 --> 01:18:40,708
something that we

1371
01:18:40,708 --> 01:18:41,250
have to be

1372
01:18:41,250 --> 01:18:41,708
careful of.

1373
01:18:41,708 --> 01:18:42,208
And that really

1374
01:18:42,208 --> 01:18:43,416
what's

1375
01:18:43,416 --> 01:18:43,833
interesting about

1376
01:18:43,833 --> 01:18:44,541
the movie is it

1377
01:18:44,541 --> 01:18:45,916
showed exactly

1378
01:18:45,916 --> 01:18:46,333
what happened

1379
01:18:46,333 --> 01:18:47,291
during the trial.

1380
01:18:47,333 --> 01:18:48,500
It had, you know,

1381
01:18:48,500 --> 01:18:49,666
the opening and

1382
01:18:49,666 --> 01:18:50,125
showed it

1383
01:18:50,125 --> 01:18:50,958
in the water.

1384
01:18:50,958 --> 01:18:51,500
And then you saw

1385
01:18:51,500 --> 01:18:52,375
a trial actually

1386
01:18:52,375 --> 01:18:52,916
working.

1387
01:18:52,916 --> 01:18:53,250
We've talked

1388
01:18:53,250 --> 01:18:53,750
about trials

1389
01:18:53,750 --> 01:18:54,958
before, but this

1390
01:18:54,958 --> 01:18:55,541
is really one of

1391
01:18:55,541 --> 01:18:56,083
the first times

1392
01:18:56,083 --> 01:18:57,208
that people in a

1393
01:18:57,208 --> 01:18:57,791
large scale

1394
01:18:57,791 --> 01:18:58,250
audience have

1395
01:18:58,250 --> 01:19:00,416
seen this type of

1396
01:19:00,416 --> 01:19:01,208
of incident.

1397
01:19:01,750 --> 01:19:02,500
And people were

1398
01:19:02,500 --> 01:19:03,041
not happy.

1399
01:19:03,041 --> 01:19:03,375
It was very

1400
01:19:03,375 --> 01:19:03,916
emotional.

1401
01:19:04,458 --> 01:19:04,916
Obviously, David

1402
01:19:04,916 --> 01:19:05,541
Attenborough, Sir

1403
01:19:05,541 --> 01:19:05,708
David

1404
01:19:05,708 --> 01:19:07,000
Attenborough is a

1405
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:07,750
genius when it

1406
01:19:07,750 --> 01:19:08,125
comes to

1407
01:19:08,125 --> 01:19:08,791
communication,

1408
01:19:09,291 --> 01:19:10,458
really pulling at

1409
01:19:10,458 --> 01:19:11,000
the heartstrings

1410
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:12,166
when you see a

1411
01:19:12,166 --> 01:19:13,583
scene like this

1412
01:19:13,583 --> 01:19:14,416
and something

1413
01:19:14,416 --> 01:19:15,083
that nobody

1414
01:19:15,083 --> 01:19:15,916
wants to see.

1415
01:19:16,166 --> 01:19:16,916
So I thought it

1416
01:19:16,916 --> 01:19:17,291
was interesting

1417
01:19:17,291 --> 01:19:17,750
to share.

1418
01:19:18,458 --> 01:19:18,791
I will be

1419
01:19:18,791 --> 01:19:19,125
watching the

1420
01:19:19,125 --> 01:19:19,625
movie is coming

1421
01:19:19,625 --> 01:19:20,458
out in my local

1422
01:19:20,458 --> 01:19:21,291
area, Burlington,

1423
01:19:21,291 --> 01:19:22,500
Ontario on the

1424
01:19:22,500 --> 01:19:23,416
24th of May.

1425
01:19:23,416 --> 01:19:23,666
I'm hoping

1426
01:19:23,666 --> 01:19:24,625
to go see it.

1427
01:19:24,875 --> 01:19:25,333
I'd like to

1428
01:19:25,333 --> 01:19:25,875
go see it.

1429
01:19:26,583 --> 01:19:27,250
And I will do

1430
01:19:27,250 --> 01:19:28,750
more review on

1431
01:19:28,750 --> 01:19:29,458
the movie and

1432
01:19:29,458 --> 01:19:30,333
what I thought of

1433
01:19:30,333 --> 01:19:32,125
it when I when I

1434
01:19:32,125 --> 01:19:32,583
come back from

1435
01:19:32,583 --> 01:19:32,916
that movie.

1436
01:19:33,375 --> 01:19:34,375
So that's what we

1437
01:19:34,375 --> 01:19:35,625
have for today.

1438
01:19:35,625 --> 01:19:36,416
That's the story.

1439
01:19:37,208 --> 01:19:37,625
Wanted to just

1440
01:19:37,625 --> 01:19:38,666
kind of let that,

1441
01:19:38,666 --> 01:19:39,250
you know, let

1442
01:19:39,250 --> 01:19:41,333
that sink in and

1443
01:19:41,333 --> 01:19:42,000
hope you get to

1444
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:42,458
see the movie.

1445
01:19:42,458 --> 01:19:42,750
You've seen

1446
01:19:42,750 --> 01:19:43,291

1478
01:20:05,166 --> 01:20:05,916
Assume I'm just

1479
01:20:05,916 --> 01:20:06,583

01:20:06,583 --> 01:20:07,125
use this.

01:20:07,125 --> 01:20:07,500
I got to practice

01:20:07,500 --> 01:20:08,291
how to go live.

1483
01:20:08,708 --> 01:20:09,833
So bear with me.

1484
01:20:10,083 --> 01:20:10,541
Trying to get

01:20:10,541 --> 01:20:11,166
