Whalers


Fisherman that hunt whales are called whalers. As time went on whalers figured out that whales tend to travel along the same paths in the oceans during certain times of the year. Whalers kill whales for their blubber ( blub ur ) and to make lots of money. Do you know how much money a whale is worth? Tons of dollars! Did you know blubber is whale fat? It was used for oil in machines, oil lamps, and lots of other things like makeup. The whalers killed so many whales that they almost became extinct.Laws were passed to not kill whales. This is called conservation. 

Until next time,
 This is Reagan & Robyn helping you see the seas!
