We came upon the fine team from IFAW at First Encounter Beach doing a necropsy on a deceased pilot whale. It’s alway sad to see but encouraging that we are learning more with each passing—hopefully this will help in the future. #capecod #firstencounterbeach #eastham #ifaw #marinemammal #marinemammalrescue #pilotwhale https://www.instagram.com/p/CovNkGbPuO7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Photos from guest Paula, who joined us on an eight night 'Isle of Skye and the Small Isles' cruise.
We are looking forward to soon setting sail and being able to enjoy the Scottish wildlife again! Our first cruise of the season departs on the 14th April 2025.

I'm back. A test to see if it works out/Kim #Repost @teamwatsonsanfrancisco —— Posted @withregram • @seashepherduk The relentless hunt of The Long Finned Pilot Whale ⚠️ In the Faroe Islands, annual drive hunts known as "grindadráp" result in mass slaughter. We receive countless responses to these shocking images questioning what could possibly justify this murder? As a food source? Consuming Pilot whales is not only inexcusably immoral but severely harmful. As discussed at The North Atlantic Marine Mammal Commission's 2022 Meeting, most Cetaceans contain toxic levels of Mercury and are scientifically not recommended for human consumption. So why? Why would anyone continue such a barbaric event ? The Faroese state they must “maintain the killing of hundreds of pilot whales each year to maintain community cohesion” Maintain a merciless tradition or an entire species population? We need you to take action and stand united against this continuous atrocity ✊ We will not stop until we end this mindless slaughter.

Mediterranean Sea | September 22, 2017 A Pilot Whale glides through the surface of the sea as storm clouds cover the setting sun. This was one of a rare pod of close to 20 whales moving in one direction. Mostly all calves and females with one large male in the lead. #onassignment #whale #pilotwhale #mediterraneansea #france #underwaterphotography

Pilot whales 🐳 are cetaceans with the highest number of neurocortical neurons. The neocortex is a part of the mammalian brain that is responsible for cognition, spatial reasoning and language. . The neocortex often shows a high degree of folding that increases the surface area in which neurons can crosstalk. . As its name implies, the neocortex is the newest part of the cerebral cortex (bottom right) that has evolved. Thus, its appearance represents the pinnacle of brain 🧠 evolution in all animals on Earth. .
