YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhale spotting is one of the world’s most unique jobs, with a history stretching back to the days of whaling in the Azores. Armed with powerful binoculars, spotters once helped whalers track sperm whales using smoke signals and fireworks. But today, they have a very different mission—helping scientists, photographers, and tourists locate whales safely while ensuring boats don’t get too close.
A job that once hunted whales now protects them. Pretty cool, right? Follow OceanX for more incredible ocean stories.
