imagine 44 gallon drums with big nipples on it to feed it, looks like poor colin might not be in a good way, but he certainly loves the yacht hes cuddling up too

Hey! Don't forget the other 7.5 inches (keep it clean boys!
) - at my height every vertical inch is vital LOL
Obviously the lil guy thinks the hull is the underside of his mum - how sad :(

why
wondering why couldnt they do an ariel search for a pod of humpy,s and move the little fellow, i mean its only 5metres, we,ve flown elephants before, bit of a shame really when we r so against whaling, would of been a great example of australia doing something massive to save, and show just how important whales are...

Roberta - bless you love for crying! {{{warm hug}}}. Without wishing to invade in a private moment, that is the photo that should have been sent to those in Japan that insist on this (not at all) 'scientific' research!

Whilst in Japan, there is (thankfully) growing discontent, there is still a very long way to go with the 'political ethos'!
