Over 200 whales trapped in Canadian ice


November 22, 2008 - 7:55AM
At least 200 narwhal whales in Canada's Arctic, trapped by winter ice and facing starvation or suffocation, must be culled, officials say.

Hunters from the village of Pond Inlet on Baffin Island discovered the animals trapped near Bylot Island, about 17 kilometres from Pond Inlet, on November 15.

The local hunters are allowed to harvest only 130 whales each year for food, according to standards set by the federal department of Fisheries and Oceans.

But department spokesman Keith Pelley said: "It's unlikely the animals are going to survive the winter, so the hunters have been given authorisation to cull them."

That's probably because you don't know any virgins.

So you have to make a difficult decision. Would you rather see unicorns, or would you rather hang out with delightful people?

I saw lots of unicorns when I was young, so I'm happy with the company of reprobates now.
