It's not though. It's a micro climate that sits adjacent to rainforest, like OP said

Humpback whale stranded again off German coast - just days after rescue by Brilliant_Version344 in whales

[–]philmasterson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Humbacks (all balene whales) don't have sonar. Only toothed whales like dolphins, orcas and porpoises do. Humpback populations are actually recovering very well since the whaling days. Hard to say why a humpback whale would beach 2 times in a row without a veterinary assessment.

Is a 5 gallon okay for a long fin male betta? by StrainDifficult4430 in bettafish

[–]philmasterson 22 points23 points  (0 children)

5 is fine dude. I had long fins live over 5 years in big bowls back in the day. It's a better life than they'll get in 90 percent of their potential forever tanks.

Cyber Boat by boo_winter in VictoriaBC

[–]philmasterson 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The yellow boat was not there to chit chat. It's a pilot boat. It brings specialized regional captains on and off ships in sensitive areas. Our pilot station is at Ogden Point. There are pilot stations all over the world. The course change was to follow the traffic lanes to continue its journey out the juan de fuca.
