A Canadian man who had worked for years to free dozens of entangled whales was killed soon after helping cut one loose, the Canadian government said Tuesday.
Joe Howlett, 59, was a founder of Campobello Whale Rescue, a non-governmental organization that saves whales off the coast of New Brunswick. He was on a rescue mission with Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) to free a North Atlantic right whale that had become ensnared, according to a statement from the department.

I think this qualifies as penetrating a new frontier in virtue signaling.

Good enough for me.
Can you drive a golfball into the blowhole of the whale at 400 yards?
Then you have to remove it.....

I think this whale was a specieist, humophobic, exercising his excessive whale privilege. At the same time, this guy was judging, just because the whale was into bondage...
