Description
This book describes the pain narwhals suffer from the blasts of seismic air guns fired into the ocean by ships conducting petroleum exploration. When the seismic wave generated from the air gun penetrates the underwater strata and returns, the data is analyzed to find places where petroleum may exist. A tremendous sound is generated each time a seismic air gun is fired, which causes great pain to narwhals. Narwhals suffer from this terrible sound daily, once every ten seconds. Because of this, they experience hearing loss or exhibit abnormal behaviors such as sinking into the sea. This sometimes leads to death.
This book was written to help children sympathize with the narwhals, develop a sense of value for life and nature, and think of ways to protect nature.
