Joe Howlett who died was a lobster fisherman who founded an organization in 2002 to rescue whales on Campobello Island, Canada. He saved dozens of whales caught in the net by mistake in the past 15 years.

Mr. Mackie Green, who created a rescue organization with Howlett, said, "They released the whale completely from the net, but the next moment terrible things happened, whales waved the tail a lot," I will explain the situation. "With this incident triggered, he absolutely does not want us to stop working, he loved his activities and never got better than when he captured a whale freed. After solving the whale from the net, I know how good he felt, "he said, indicating the intention to continue the rescue operation.

Howlett and others rescued it now that there are only about 500 people protected as endangered speciesThai horse whaleWith growing, the length will be 13 to 18 m, and the weight will be as much as 70 tons.


According to the Canadian Fisheries and Ocean Ministry, Howlett was successful in rescuing another whale the day before How July 5th, 2017, when Howlett died. "Liberating the whales caught in the net is a lot of risk, the situation is varied and the movements of whales can not be predicted," the Fisheries Ocean Ministry says. At the same time, the Fisheries Ocean Ministry says Howlett was "a wonderfully brave man who was passionate about the prosperity of marine animals."

The following picture shows how Howlett is rescuing a whale. It cuts the net with a knife-attached stick, but that a whale is never hurt by a knife.


Jerry Conway, an advisor to a whale rescue team, also suggests that the whale rescue may involve the risk of a rescuer getting caught in the net, the risk of being pulled by a whale and falling out of the boat, and whales riding on the boat There is a lot of danger such as the dangers that the boat is overturned.

Also, Stephen Smart, Mayor of Campobello Island, said, "Campobello island is an island of 850 islands, Joe has a wonderful sense of humor and is a very active person. Everyone knows Howlet and respects, respect "His death is a big pain," he said.

In an interview in 2013, Howlett says "It is not a situation with fear" about the rescue activities of whales. "" I am a fisherman and I fish in half of my life. I often handle ropes and other things I know that. "
