Whale conservation insights

In this blog post, we delve into how fishing gear is one of the leading causes of injury and death for whales, from entanglement in nets and lines to long-lasting harm caused by ghost gear left in the ocean. This blog post breaks down how fishing equipment damages marine ecosystems and explains how choosing vegan alternatives can directly reduce demand for these harmful practices. By making compassionate, plant-based choices, we can help protect whales and keep the ocean safe and free.

In this blog post, we discuss Ferdinand who was a beluga whale captured from the wild as a young whale and spent nearly his entire life in captivity, including many years at SeaWorld San Diego. Although he lived to an older age, his life highlights the ethical concerns of keeping highly intelligent, social whales confined to tanks far from their natural ocean habitats. His story raises important questions about captivity, conservation, and how humans choose to interact with and protect whales in the wild.
