SUDDEN MASS DOLPHIN AND WHALE STRANDINGS in the Bahamas
beginning on March 14 have coincided with nearby U.S. Navy acoustical
tests -- including low frequency active sonar (LFAS). Evidence of a
connection between such tests and a rash of worldwide strandings has
been growing, and such esteemed organizations as the Natural Resources
Defense Counsel (NRDC) and the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS)
have joined a lawsuit already underway in trying to get the Navy to stop
these highly risky and apparently illegal activities. Source:
