Help Whales Without Even Having to Put Down Your Gourmet Chips and Dips

You’ve probably wanted to do more to help whales, but maybe you found it difficult to find something you could do with your mouth full of gourmet chips and dips. Eating Whale Tail Tortilla chips is a good start, and the Whale Song Project at Scientific American will be like music to your ears, which is a lucky thing because your mouth is full and it couldn’t hear anyway.
All you have to do is visit Whale FM. They have more than 15,000 recordings of Killer Whales and Pilot Whales. You listen to a clip at the top of the page and look at a visual image of the pitch changes. Then, you click to match it with one of the samples listed at the bottom of the page.
For conservation purposes, it’s important for scientists to learn more about why and when animals make certain sounds. There is growing evidence that the increase in noise made by human activities is harming marine life. Findings from crowd sourced studies can help promote better regulations on activities like oil and gas exploration.
All this may even help you with getting a good job. You’ve probably seen headlines about robots replacing people at some companies. As it turns out, projects like this prove that humans are a lot better than robots at making visual comparisons. And we probably select better snack foods. Take that robots.
While you’re at it, fill in any pesky gaps on your resume by saying you worked with scientists to study whale communications and throw in fancy terms like spectrogram. Before you know it the interviewer will be asking you when you can start and wanting to know if you’re available so they can introduce you to their single friends.
