Photo by @Cristina Mittermeier. During a dive under the freezing waters of the Antarctic Peninsula, we came upon a tragic sight. A giant graveyard of blue whale skeletons; remnants of the slaughter that occurred here over 100 years ago. Complete skeletons of these giant whales still lie untouched in the bottom of the sea. Pre-whaling, there may have been more than 250,000 blue whales in the world. But relentlessly pursued by 20th century whaling fleets, the species was nearly exterminated before receiving worldwide protection in 1967. They are starting to recover in some parts of the world but remain absent from Antarctica. A reminder of how fragile, our marine ecosystems are. #OnAssignment for @ナショナルジオグラフィック.
