Couple stunned after stumbling across chunk of WHALE VOMIT on beach - and it could be worth £50,000 pic.twitter.com/SF2Jb7T8UT. This suggests that climate change, too, is stressing the whales. Trumble says he and his colleagues are still trying to narrow down exactly what about climate change is causing the increase in stress.

Icky marine relics make it clear we have a lasting impact on all animals in the sea. Maybe they should try cuddling a Polar Bear sometime to see how cute it really is? Remember the dead albatross with plastic in its carcase which the loons said was evidence of killer plastic well turns out it kills many an albatross, though the singular ‘plastic collection’ does seem to do rounds a bit. Then an idea came to us: The circles give clues about nutrition, so what else could they reveal? And Wikipedia said that one monarch particularly loved the taste of the whale vomit - Charles II would eat it with eggs. The perfume connection.


It turns out we’re incredibly stress-inducing—from whaling to war to climate change, our actions have been affecting whales, even if we don’t interact with them directly.

Just hope I live long enough to witness the end of the world event for myself.

I happened to mention an ancient method for determining a whale’s age: More than a century ago, whalers learned to examine the creatures’ earwax, which builds up over the years and congeals into a sticky plug.

Either way it has fuck all to do with us. What the heck is earwax doing on that list?

That isn't stopping the schoolboy from dreaming about how to spend his newfound riches. This news item was a winner because it not only involved a whale [which is hardly cute and cuddly but it seems to be an eco-favourite for some reason] but it involved plastic. Here are some deals to help ease the pain. The earwax came from eight men of Asian descent with dry wax, and eight men of European descent with wet wax. Here’s his tale from the field as told to Donavyn Coffey.

Extracting such information, however, is no small feat, says Trumble. Many products featured on this site were editorially chosen. There are two types of whales. Thus proving that more plastic in the sea is a life-saver for humankind. In addition, Kellar says that he’d like to see other variables such as the animal’s cause of death taken into account, as the natural aging process can affect hormone levels. But even the world’s largest Q-tip is of no use in removing the earplug. As it comes from sperm whale, which is classed as a vulnerable species, cosmetic companies tend to shun using it because it is associated with whaling.

Is wankers too strong a descriptor?

A Bonnier Corporation Company. And because the wax is added in layers—similar to tree rings—researchers can get a time series of data on everything from pesticide contamination to reproductive cycles.
