Humpback whales have always been one of new England's most famous native species, now with the country's expansion, pollution, tourism, is killing these whales at a fast rate. Humpback's come to the New England's feeding grounds, where they are constantly disturbed and watched by the think whale watching business in the area. They are also getting drowned by the numerous fishing lines that are used for swordfish fishing, where they get in tangled and kept from reaching the surface which will eventually drown them.
How many of these animals have died? How many will die till they come close to extinction?
