Why should we care? Well it's estimated that there are about 10,000 humpbacks coursing about the planet now... low numbers considering we had 240,000 in the North Atlantic pre-whaling. Ever notice how the actual term 'science' often appears in titles where the group may... say... be engaged in activities requiring public justification?
