E51 - Joseph Maltese - Rice's Whale
In today's episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation Podcast, we get the chance the speak with CPWF Chicago chapter leader, Joseph Maltese. Joseph tells us all about a whale that most people don't know exists. The Rice's Whale (Balaenoptera ricei) was acknowledged as a distinct species of whale from the Bryde's whale in 2021. Joseph explains why these whales are endangered, and what needs to change in order to help them. Joseph and the CPWF Chicago team plan to launch a social media campaign to create more awareness about the plight of the Rice's whale. There are less than 50 of these whales left, and we need to do everything we can to protect them.
Joseph did a report on the Rice's whale and you can read his report here - https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/36408579c22646a9a44a1028369adcf8
