The Oral History of Toothless Whales
Baleen whales carry their medical records in their mouths.

Right whales have the longest baleen. They have as many as 360 plates, which can be up to four meters in length. This is a southern right whale, photographed near Cape Town, South Africa. Photo by C & M Fallows/SeaPics.com

When worlds collide
Yesterday the United Nations added its voice to a land protest in New Zealand.

Ihumātao is Auckland's oldest settlement, but in 1863, the land was illegally confiscated from Māori. More injustices followed, which have not since been addressed.

Plans to build a 480-house subdivision on the land have been passionately protested. Now, the UN says the subdivision should be reconsidered.

This is why.
