Discussion
Discussion
In groups, describe the relationship between
Old Tom and the whalers. What other animals
help out humans in hunting?
Old Tom had a strong relationship with the
whalers. There was obviously a great deal of
understanding and cooperation between them.

There are many other animals that help out
humans in hunting such as dogs and cormorants
(鸬鹚). In the past, falcons(猎鹰)were used to
hunt rabbits, and cheetahs (印度豹) were used to
hunt wild animals.
Discussion
The last whaling station in Australia closed
in 1978. Whales are now an endangered
species and in need of conservation. They
are now protected by an international ban
on whaling. However, some countries
oppose the ban. In groups discuss the
reasons for and against banning whaling.
