The captain called all hands and swore, he’d take that whale in tow (huh!)

Actually on their way to being trapped in a lobster pot rope.

I know Japan is known for hunting whales, but it's a case of "blame them over there" when really they pose no threat to North Atlantic Right Whales, but American and Canadians actually do. Cause well... Japan is on the Pacific, and even then was regulated on what whales they hunt by an international organization. Meanwhile here in the US and Canada, lobster areas are fighting tooth and nail to not have more protections for North Atlantic Right Whales.

So... Yeah I know this was a joke, it just doesn't land well when you know the details of the issue...

I hope that the lobstering industry fighting regulations doesn't hurt these whales :/ ...
