Animal Rights being one of my favorite topics, I was browsing the Journal of Animal Welfare this afternoon. I came up with the following ‘hot’ article
Immediate immobilization of a Minke whale using a grenade harpoon requires striking a restricted target area.
This commentary suggests that, when using the Norwegian penthrite grenade-tipped harpoon (’Whalegrenade-99′), it is necessary to hit a relatively well-defined target area in order to effect an immediately immobile, and presumed unconscious state in the Minke whale.Animal Welfare (2006), 15, (1), 55-57
Obviously I’m doing my research in the wrong field. I could be improving the WHALEGRENADE-99 to better the world.
