This week: Local groups head to the governor's office to call for an end to evaporating radioactive water at the Pilgrim nuclear plant. The latest population estimate for endangered North Atlantic right whales has come out, and it's a bit of good news. And early voting has begun—we check in with local polling spots.

Biologists and researchers tracking right whales have released their latest population estimate for the endangered species. We'll speak to Phillip Hamilton, one of the scientists involved.

Hi and welcome back to Walkin' on the Wild Side!  This episode, we're going to the coast (figuratively) and talking about one of the rarest marine mammals, the northern right whale.  Taken to the brink of extinction by the whaling industry, this slow moving, surface dwelling whale faces an uncertain future as population numbers compromised during whaling continue to decline due to modern day vessel strikes, entanglement in fishing gear, and demands for the ocean's resources.  Join Marvin and Gabrielle to learn more about this incredible marine mammal, it's stuggles, and continued efforts to save a whale who's very survival is in the hands of the human race.For more information, here are a few websites for you to check out:https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/species/north-atlantic-right-whalehttps://www.mmc.gov/priority-topics/species-of-concern/north-atlantic-right-whale/https://www.worldwildlife.org/species/north-atlantic-right-whalehttps://www.nrdc.org/bio/francine-kershaw/final-north-atlantic-right-whale-and-offshore-wind-strategy-releasedInterested in having Marvin and Gabrielle speak at your event?  Email us below for more information!Email us at www.walkingonthewildside21@gmail.comFollow us on our two webpages to see photos and blogs about our podcasts and nature in general:Nature Nook PhotographyWalkin' on the Wild SideYou can listen directly from our website at: https://walkinonthewildside.buzzsprout.com, or from any of the major podcast platforms, such as Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Audible, Spotify, iHeart Radio, TuneIn, Stitcher, and more!Subscribe to our podcasts on any of these platforms and leave us a review!We hope you enjoy listening to our podcast and welcome your emails, comments, and feedback.  Hopefully, we will inspire you to get out there and start "Walkin' on the Wild Side"!We'd love to hear from you with your questions and comments!We'd love to hear from you with your questions and comments!

We talk with Catherine Ridley, VP of One Hundred Miles, about wildlife protection efforts in coastal Georgia, focusing on the endangered North Atlantic Right Whale and Loggerhead Sea Turtles who breed here and are at risk due to fatal ship strikes, fishing gear entanglements, dredging, and noise and light pollution, as well as discussing ancient Horseshoe Crabs, who are especially under threat lately by pharmaceutical industries who are capturing (kidnapping) hundreds of thousands of them and draining them of their blue blood, despite a synthetic substance that serves the same medical purpose without the massive animal exploitation.  In this 27-minute interview with In Tune to Nature host Carrie Freeman, Catherine Ridley discusses policy solutions such as zones for slower ship speeds, beach lighting ordinances, dredging bans during breeding season, and synthetic alternatives to horseshoe crab blood, all of which would save animal lives if we made them and our ecosystem health a priority. Catherine urges civic engagement and for us to get passionate and speak up. See the Horseshoe Crab Recovery Coalition that has action items to ban the mass exploitation https://hscrabrecovery.org/ See action items for all coastal species at One Hundred Miles' page on wildlife https://onehundredmiles.org/wildlife/  and you can join their email action item list here https://onehundredmiles.org/join-mailing-list/  In Tune to Nature is a weekly show airing on Wednesdays from 6:30-7pm EST on Atlanta indie station WRFG (Radio Free Georgia) 89.3FM hosted by Carrie Freeman or Melody Paris.

Andy, Hanna, and Fish talk about flamingos on the Cape, manatee sprint speed, and the Right Whale in the wrong ocean. Intro music is from "Across the Line" by the Wellington Sea Shanty Society.

We speak with Moira Brown, a senior scientist with the Canadian Whale Institute. She discusses the sighting of an endangered North Atlantic Right Whale close to the coastline near Peggy's Cove. And on the phone-in: PEI's Chief Public Health Officer, Dr. Heather Morrison, talks about the Live Well PEI Action Plan.

Our guest for this episode of The WeWhale Pod is Terry Wolkowicz, Co-Founder and Educational Director of non profit organisation Sound Explorations. Terry, who is based in New Bedford, Massachusetts, talks about the educational mission of the organisation. She also dives into one project in particular, Whales in Motion: A Musical and Sculptural Experience for the Blind and Visually Impaired. It combines tactile sculptures and live performance by musicians to facilitate blind and visually impaired people understanding and experiencing how whales move through the water and how they forage. Terry also chats about the work going on in her local area to help Northern Atlantic right whales migrating off the coast of Massachusetts,  and the children's book she co-wrote with colleague David McKenzie called 'Right Whale, Wrong Letter'. She also describes having the opportunity to help researchers to tag humpback whales and how that experience deeply changed her.

Charles "Stormy" Mayo, an expert on right whales and helped develop techniques for disentangling whales from fishing gear, is retiring from the Center for Coastal Studies this year. He spoke with WBUR's All Things Considered host Lisa Mullins about his work and the future for marine life in a warming world.

WBZ NewsRadio's Madison Rogers (@MadisonWBZ) reports.

Bonnie Monteleone is the Founder & Director of Science, Research, and Academic Partnerships of the Plastic Ocean Project (POP) whose mission is finding science-based solutions to the global plastic pollution crisis.  In 2019, she was working on a documentary about the North Atlantic Ocean. However,  its plot quickly went from one about a complex, impacted ecosystem into a "who done it," following the death of a newborn critically endangered North Atlantic Right Whale that washed ashore. Was it manmade noise that caused the mother to lose her newborn, a ship strike, chemical or plastic pollution, was it discarded fishing gear, or overfishing? Bonnie discusses her work with plastics pollution and how it relates to this new documentary project she is undertaking. The threats the ocean and its creatures are facing are vast, but Bonnie dives deep into viable solutions that everyone can support to preserve the sounds of the sea and the marine life in it. This film, which asks what the oceans would say if they could talk, promises to inspire hope, not doom, but only if we listen. ​​Bonnie's work has led her around the world collecting plastic marine samples including four of the five main ocean gyres and the Caribbean. She also works in the Environmental Studies Department at UNC Wilmington as an Adjunct Instructor teaching a Plastic Marine Debris Field Studies course and manages a lab working with student Directed Independent Studies (DIS) research. Highlights What happened to this baby Right Whale and what does that mean for the species as a whole?How can whales help mitigate climate change?If the oceans could talk, what would we learn?  What YOU Can Do Bonnie talks a lot about solutions her organization is implementing as well as what different industries can do. But, here are some ideas on what YOU can do: Avoid single-use plastic. Support the documentary either monetarily, by spreading the word, or by seeing it when it comes to a festival near you.  Filmmakers (and wanna-be filmmakers) contribute your ocean footage to the film so they have less of a need to go out and film (and use fossil fuels to do so). Spread the word about the danger these whales are in so people are more likely to support ideas and legislation that protect them.  ResourcesInformation about the documentary, If the Ocean Could Talk.  Plastic Ocean Project (POP) Facebook  POP Instagram   POP LinkedIn   Use discount code EXGREEN20 and receive a 20% discount for a full week or single-day registration to the EarthX Congress of Conferences this April!

Another North Atlantic Right Whale was found dead this week...a female, and mother to a calf born this year. We'll speak with Philip Hamilton at the New England Aquarium.

The dead whale was found floating around 50 miles off the coast of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge. She was identified as Female #1950, first seen in 1989. She birthed a calf this past winter, which crews haven't spotted yet.

Biologists studying the critically endangered Atlantic Right Whale.

In 2022, NOAA released recommendations for vessel speed restrictions in an effort to protect the North Atlantic right whale. NOAA not only expanded the area dramatically, they also expanded the vessels being covered. The new rules would restrict most vessels 35 feet or larger to 10 knots in these seasonal zones. Approval of this proposal however is stalled. There are too many competing interests and a large number of people are opposed to the changes. In the end the whales lose. Another calf was struck recently be a vessel and died. The North Atlantic right whale is critically endangered with less than 400 left so every death is devastating. These whales are very slow swimmers and cannot avoid the high speed vessels. Public comment on this proposal ended in October 2022. It is time to approve NOAA's recommendations.

Two critically endangered North Atlantic right whales died within the last month, in US waters. One of them had been entangled in lobster gear off Maine. Several companies have been developing ropless fishing gear. The Canadian Wildlife Federation has a ropeless gear lending program.

This week: The federal budget currently being wrangled in Washington, D.C., may make a big difference to the replacement of the Bourne and Sagamore bridges. And: What's going on at the offshore site of Vineyard Wind? And, we take a look at the long entanglement and brief life of a singular right whale — number 5120.

Stunning power price-hikes expected as politicians mandate wind-farm power. Imminent extinction of the Northern Right whale, and a disaster for marine ecosystems and fisheries. You're paying for it... About a trillion dollars in subsidies BEFORE the power bills come!  

8 new right whale calves have been spotted in species' breeding grounds this year. We'll speak to researcher Amy Warren about the hopes for the calving season.

In our latest episode we speak with world-renowned underwater photojournalist Brian Skerry.  Brian talks about his early work in the bone-chilling waters of New England (where he continues documenting our changing seas), his early pictures for National Geographic starting with a pirate shipwreck.  Also, some of his famous images including of a grey seal, a Right Whale greeting his assistant and a dead shark in a net.  And, he recalls some close calls he's had under ice and at sea. So, dive in with us and the amazing Brian Skerry.Rising Tide, the Ocean Podcast, is a compelling platform that delves into the vast realms of ocean and climate science, conservation, and exploration featuring experts, scientists, mariners and explorers. Each half hour episode navigates through insightful discussions on marine life, and the critical issues affecting our seas.

Lisa Linowes is a New Hampshire-based energy policy analyst and the author of a report for the Fiscal Alliance Foundation which found that renewable-energy mandates in New England have resulted in dramatic increases in electricity costs. In her second appearance on the podcast, (the first was on April 25, 2022),  Linowes explains why renewable mandates are costing Massachusetts ratepayers at least $1 billion per year, the causes of the natural gas shortages in New England, the death of environmentalism, and why the biggest climate NGOs in the country are silent about the impact offshore wind development is having on whales and other marine mammals. (Recorded June 19, 2023.)

Northern right whales have been the subject of many conservation conversations over the past couple of months due to the decisions made around lobster and crab pot support for sustainability to protect the endangered species. Northern Right whales are heavily monitored, especially in the winter during their calving season. Two calves were spotted recently off the coast of Georgia providing some hope for the endangered whales in hopes that their numbers rebound, but the population is expected to produce 23 calves per year which have not been achieved in a long time. One theory is that the whales have had to shift their feeding areas north to the Gulf of St. Lawrence to find their preferred food, copepods due to climate change. Will this season be better than those in the past?   Link to articles: 1) 2 Northern Right Whales Spotted Off the Coast of Georgia https://bit.ly/3V6QgUm 2) 13 new Northern Right Whale calves in 2021 https://bit.ly/3BKFVGu 3) Northern Right Whale Food Source https://bit.ly/3jfIhH2   Fill out our listener survey: https://www.speakupforblue.com/survey   Join the audio program - Build Your Marine Science and Conservation Career: https://www.speakupforblue.com/career   Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/3NmYvsI Connect with Speak Up For Blue: Website: https://bit.ly/3fOF3Wf Instagram: https://bit.ly/3rIaJSG Twitter: https://bit.ly/3rHZxpc 

This week we decided to skip the trivia episode until later in December and talk some more fishing and hunting. We invited founder and owner of Marsh Tacky Carbon, Wes Covington, into the studio with us to discuss his incredible line of carbon outriggers and gaffs. Named after the iconic horses that once roamed the Lowcountry area and were known for their incredible strength and ability to get a job done in all circumstances. This completely describes the products he offers and we enjoyed hearing all about his top of the line offerings. But in true Trilogy Outdoors fashion we ended up discussing so much more with the former lobbyist in the SC State House. This is a great episode and some of our other topics are the proposed Right Whale speed restrictions, dog driving for deer, and best apps for sea surface conditions. Be sure to go to www.trilogyoutdoorsmedia.com and keep up with all that we have going on and to see the latest edition of our magazine Trilogy Outdoors Magazine. Enjoy!!

On this episode, hosts Peter Ravella and Tyler Buckingham bring David Abel back to the show for an update on the ongoing saga between the Maine lobster fishery and the endangered North Atlantic Right Whale, a subject he covers in depth in his reporting with the Boston Globe and in his Emmy-nominated film ENTANGLED. Since Peter and Tyler started this podcast, the conflict between the lobster fishery and the Right Whale has been a topic of discussion on many episodes. Four years ago, when they recorded their first episode on this topic, the whale population was estimated to be slightly over 400 individuals. New data revealed in this episode shows that the population of the Right Whale is now under 350 individuals, signaling the dire need for greater regulatory action if the whales are to be saved. David provides an update on this new data, as well as coloring in the legal and political developments that are now shaping the increasingly contentious debate over how to manage the fishery and prevent the extinction of the great North Atlantic Right Whale. David Abel is an award-winning reporter who covers fisheries and environmental issues for The Boston Globe. Abel's work has won an Edward R. Murrow Award, the Ernie Pyle Award from the Scripps Howard Foundation, and the Sigma Delta Chi Award for Feature Reporting.
