The communicative ability of the whale is thought to be highly developed.
International measures have been taken to prevent the extermination of the whale .
The whale has a very distinctive call.
Today krill is consumed by an increased abundance of smaller whales (minkes), seals (notably the crabeater seal) and seabirds (notably several penguin species), plus humans.
Whales were sighted occasionally and the boats were lowered on several occasions, but no whales were taken.
The post-lapsarian world impinged with the first sightings of commodities, seals and whales.
In the post-war period, whaling yielded valuable food oils and meat, and much money had been spent on factory ships and infrastructure.
Next comes birds, divided into seabirds and penguins, followed by mammals, with sections on whales and seals.
