In some places women have the same issues as the whales, why do we have compassion to save whales from hunters but we do not pour the same effort into stopping humans from being hunted. I love whales too dont get me wrong but the worlds priorities are so messed up. good photo thanks for the post and a chance to shed light on other global issues, Frizz have a great day, I look forward to the next post.
