TAPE SCRIPT:
Whales are mammals that live their entire lives in the water. Some whales are
huge. The blue whale, for example, grows to 30 meters in length and over 200
tons in weight. It is the largest animal that has ever lived on earth. Whales may
also be the most intelligent animals in the ocean. Whales to feed in the cold

oceans where there is a lot of krill- their favorite food. Cold water in the North
and South Atlantic Ocean and the North and South Pacific are good feeding
grounds for whales. Some whales are known to migrate into warm waters to bear
their calves. Whale populations decrease quickly due to heavy hunting pressure.
Conservation groups asked the International Whaling Commission to stop
whaling. However, Native American hunters, such as the Eskimo, are still allowed
to hunt a limited number of whales to feed their communities. If no effective
measures were taken to protect whales, these wonderful animals would disappear
forever.
