21．（6分）Do’s and Don’ts in Whale (鲸) Watching
The Department of Fisheries and Oceans has developed guidelines for whale watching in Johnstone Strait, where killer whales are found on a daily basis each summer. It is strongly recommended that vessel (船只) operators follow these guidelines for all kinds of whales.
• Approach whales from the side, not from the front or the back.
• Approach no closer than 100 metres, then stop the boat but keep the engine on.
• Keep noise levels down — no horns, whistles or racing of engines.
• Start your boat only after the whales are more than 100 metres from your vessel
• Leave the area slowly, gradually moving faster when you are more than 300 metre
s from the whales.
• Approach and leave slowly, avoiding sudden changes in speed or direction.
• Avoid disturbing groups of resting whales.
• Keep at low speeds and remain in the same direction if traveling side by side with whales.
• When whales are traveling close to shore, avoid crowding them near the shore or coming between the whales and the shore.
• Limit the time spent with any group of whales to less than 30 minutes at a time when within 100 to 200 metres of whales.
