- Really?
- [singsongy] Really.

- [singsongy] Deal.

- Hi, Asha!
- Hi, Jane.

[Jane's mom] ♪ Get your booty
On the floor tonight ♪
349
00:19:09,609 --> 00:19:10,694
That's my mom.
350
00:19:10,694 --> 00:19:13,613
Ever since she and our neighbor
sang to a blue whale, she can't stop.
351
00:19:13,613 --> 00:19:15,532
Why were they singing to a blue whale?
352
00:19:15,532 --> 00:19:18,285
- He got a fishing net stuck in his mouth.
- That's not good.
353
00:19:18,285 --> 00:19:20,120
Have you ever found old fishing nets?
354
00:19:20,120 --> 00:19:23,748
Yeah, actually, I have.
Um, let me show you a photograph.
355
00:19:23,748 --> 00:19:27,502
This first picture is of me
with a giant fishing net
356
00:19:27,502 --> 00:19:29,170
that I found floating in the ocean.
357
00:19:29,170 --> 00:19:31,756
We also see plastic floating around,
358
00:19:31,756 --> 00:19:37,470
but sometimes we do find amazing things.
Like this!
359
00:19:37,470 --> 00:19:40,140
- [Jane] What is that?
- [de Vos] That's blue whale poop!
360
00:19:40,140 --> 00:19:44,352
Whale poop is a window
into the lives of these giants
361
00:19:44,352 --> 00:19:47,147
when they're underwater
in places that we can't see.
362
00:19:47,147 --> 00:19:48,231
Why is it so red?
363
00:19:48,231 --> 00:19:50,025
Because of what they feed on.
364
00:19:50,025 --> 00:19:53,111
Here in Sri Lanka,
our blue whales feed on shrimp,
365
00:19:53,111 --> 00:19:55,071
but elsewhere they feed on krill,
366
00:19:55,071 --> 00:19:59,075
and this coloration comes from the food
that they're digesting, basically.
367
00:19:59,075 --> 00:20:01,077
When was the first time
you saw a blue whale?
368
00:20:01,077 --> 00:20:03,371
Let me just show you a map of Sri Lanka.
369
00:20:03,371 --> 00:20:07,000
{\an8}Right down here at the bottom,
there's a place called Yala,
370
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,921
and that's actually where I had
my first encounter with six blue whales.
371
00:20:10,921 --> 00:20:15,175
As you can see, these whales
are pretty amazing and gigantic.
372
00:20:15,175 --> 00:20:18,803
What a privilege for us
to live side by side
373
00:20:18,803 --> 00:20:21,640
with the largest animal
that's ever roamed our planet.
374
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,016
That's incredible!
375
00:20:23,016 --> 00:20:25,435
So, when did you know
you wanted to study blue whales?
376
00:20:25,435 --> 00:20:28,313
Ah, well. Here. At about the age of six,
377
00:20:28,313 --> 00:20:32,651
my parents would go out and bring back
secondhand National Geographic magazines,
378
00:20:32,651 --> 00:20:36,279
{\an8}and I fell in love with the ocean,
and I wanted to know what was in there.
379
00:20:36,279 --> 00:20:39,157
{\an8}[Jane] Asha, what does "Oceanswell" mean?
On the back of your shirt.
380
00:20:39,157 --> 00:20:41,409
It's an organization
that I founded out here.
381
00:20:41,409 --> 00:20:44,287
Because, you know,
when I was 17 or 18 years old,
382
00:20:44,287 --> 00:20:46,873
we didn't have marine biologists
in this country.
383
00:20:46,873 --> 00:20:50,293
And by creating Oceanswell,
it's given me the opportunity
384
00:20:50,293 --> 00:20:53,588
to nurture that next generation
of diverse ocean heroes.
385
00:20:53,588 --> 00:20:55,674
And that's what I'm trying
to grow out here.
386
00:20:55,674 --> 00:20:58,843
Because if we truly want
to save our oceans,
387
00:20:58,843 --> 00:21:02,222
every coastline needs a local hero.
388
00:21:02,222 --> 00:21:03,682
Just like you, Asha!
389
00:21:03,682 --> 00:21:05,058
When you're out on the ocean,
390
00:21:05,058 --> 00:21:07,060
do you see things
that can hurt the blue whale?
391
00:21:07,060 --> 00:21:08,436
Let me show you a diagram.
392
00:21:08,436 --> 00:21:11,648
The ocean is like
a giant obstacle course for these animals.
393
00:21:11,648 --> 00:21:14,943
If they're in a shipping lane,
they can get hit by a ship and get killed.
394
00:21:14,943 --> 00:21:16,653
If they swim through nets,
395
00:21:16,653 --> 00:21:20,073
they can get entangled
and drown or starve to death.
396
00:21:20,073 --> 00:21:22,617
And also, the ocean is getting noisier,
397
00:21:22,617 --> 00:21:25,912
and that disrupts how they find their food
or how they find their friends.
398
00:21:25,912 --> 00:21:27,289
What can we do to help them?
399
00:21:27,289 --> 00:21:29,874
One of the key things
I like to ask people to do,
400
00:21:29,874 --> 00:21:32,419
is share the stories of our oceans.
401
00:21:32,419 --> 00:21:35,672
The more we can tell people
the cool facts that we learned--
402
00:21:35,672 --> 00:21:39,718
Like, I hope today you'll go off
and tell someone, maybe your mum,
403
00:21:39,718 --> 00:21:41,928
about what color blue whale poop is.
404
00:21:41,928 --> 00:21:43,847
And then we can share these amazing things
405
00:21:43,847 --> 00:21:47,934
and create more ambassadors for our ocean,
'cause that's what I think we need.
