Reportaj AFP: Balenele din New York, iubite de cetățeni, riscă să moară din cauza trecerii navelor

Humpback whales are increasingly spotted in New York's waters, delighting locals and tourists alike. Their return is attributed to successful conservation efforts. Oceanographer Carl LoBue notes that whale watching has become common, contrasting with the rarity of past sightings. The New York Bay has transformed into a feeding ground due to improved environmental regulations. However, heavy maritime traffic poses risks to these whales, prompting new safety measures in navigation courses to prevent collisions.
