While they winter together on some of the Western islands of Japan, they then migrate along very different pathways, one on the mainland and one along the string of Japanese islands. Judging from my experience in the human world, a very predictable result.

According to Reuters: Japan, which considers whaling to be a cherished cultural tradition, killed 679 minke whales despite plans to catch around 850. He speaks of the "mixed message of the animal rights community" that animals are so much like us, yet not enough like us to experiment on. And I'm sure they see it as an attack.

This would have allowed you to summarize your experience in sentences such as “A total of 98 boluses regurgitated by 52 chicks aged 1 day to 11 days after hatching form the sample and are shown to contain 323 food items.” Where it is not – for example, in Japan – it will have difficulties finding a partner to mate.

No, I think that covers it.
