This week Chris Parsons interviews Sally Mizroch and world expert on the sei whale. Sei whales were heavily hit by whaling and her research indicates that many stocks have never really recovered. But this whale is largely overlooked by marine conservation groups. Sally talks about the history of industrial and commercial whaling - pointing out some uncomfortable truths about this history - and talks about a major scientific mistake she discovered, that almost led to the total decimation of the sei whale.  Speak Up For Blue Instagram Speak Up For Blue Twitter Check out the Shows on the Speak Up For Blue Network: Marine Conservation Happy Hour Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/2k4ZB3x Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2kkEElk ConCiencia Azul: Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/2k6XPio Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2k4ZMMf Dugongs & Seadragons: Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/2lB9Blv Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2lV6THt Environmental Studies & Sciences Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/2lx86oh Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2lG8LUh Speak Up For The Ocean Blue: Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/2m28QSF Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2SJgyiN Madame Curiosity Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/2xUlSax Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2V38QQ1 Ocean Science Radio Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3chJMfA Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3bnkP18
