It was reported by Discovery News that a research team has recorded more and more whales migrating through the Bering Strait between 2009 and 2012 as Arctic ice melts. Some whales that usually reside further south have begun using the Strait in more numbers."

TOO MANY JELLY FISH?
I've been reading that there is a JELLY FISH AROUND THE WORLD AND THAT IT'S GLOBAL! While scientists seem to be not worried, I can't help but wonder how or if this ties in with all the changes in the earth's temperature that is melting ice packs and changing the weather. Be the changes part of a natural cycle, the earth responding to human use of resources, or something more mysterious, I hope to learn more soon!
