Book Description
Papers arising out of a field programme to examine catches of long-finned pilot whales (Globicephal melas) taken in the North Atlantic in the Faroese fishery.

Book Description
"This manuscript provides a brief description of the two species of pilot whales (long-finned pilot whales, Globicephala melas (previously known as G. melaena), and the short-finned pilot whale (G. macrorhynchus), found in the North Atlantic Ocean . It then lists scientific publications relating to the biology, behavior, conservation and management, most of which were published from 1939 to present. This document focuses primarily on published literature on the distribution and abundance of the two species throughout the North Atlantic Ocean. Literature on long-finned pilot whales and short-finned pilot whales from other geographic regions is also included, as readers may gain insight into the research methodologies and findings of other stocks and populations of these two species. Unpublished articles or popular books are generally excluded, unless these contain important information not available elsewhere"--Abstract.

Book Description
"Marine scientist Michael J. Moore says we are all whalers, but we don't have to be. Eating fish leads to North Atlantic right whales' entanglement and death. Buying goods made around the world requires global shipping routes, which do not accurately consider right whale breeding and feeding sites, leading to collision. To explain this, Moore conveys to readers scenes from over thirty years' worth of fieldwork, performing whale necropsies for animals stranded on beaches, working as an independent researcher alongside whalers using explosive harpoons, and tracking injured pregnant whales to deliver antibiotics. Despite these sometimes disturbing experiences, Moore has written a hopeful book. He uses these stories to show we can change and to tell us how; the technology for rope-less fishing and tracking whale migrations already exist to protect both right whales and the people who depend on shipping and fishing for their livelihoods"--
