EnhanceTV :: Study Guides :: Whale Patrol

Whale Patrol

Whale Patrol concerns itself with problems encountered by Humpback and Southern Right Whales as they make their annual migration from Antarctica to the waters off the Western Australian coast. And the problems of the team charged with rescuing them from entanglement in fishing gear. It is suitable for primary school children so long as some scenes are not shown (see below) as it deals with one of the most physically challenging aspects of wildlife rescue.

Equally it is suitable for junior and middle level SOSE students in Secondary schools with the same proviso. In senior school, it would be appropriate for Geography, Environmental Studies/ Science courses. The wildlife management components would be suitable for tertiary Environmental Management units, especially the parts dealing with the modification of fisheries for environmental reasons and the ethics of euthanasia.

Important Note: The second half of the documentary includes explicit footage of whale euthanasia which is unsuitable for younger students and is challenging for all viewers, although valuable. Teacher preview and selective use of the program is strongly recommended for use with students under fifteen years old. Check the Time Log for details.
