Cherished viewers, welcome to Animal World: Our Co-Inhabitants. Today we will travel to Australia.
Famous as the 『Whale Watch Capital of the World,』 Hervey Bay, located in the state of Queensland, on Australia’s east coast, is a natural haven for the large marine mammals.

The sociable whales interact with casual whale watchers, conservationists and scientists in a friendly and playful manner.

Wally (M): Mysterious they are these creatures of the deep, waving their wing like pectoral fins as if calling to me.

Too far, too far is the path you beat, no time, no time to weep, no time to be.
Insistent they are these sirens of deep oceans, singing their soulful songs, enchanters of emotions of love, of joy, of play, of dance.

HOST: Trish and Wally Franklin are the founders of the Australian non-profit organization The Oceania Project and the couple have devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the conservation and protection of whales, dolphins and the oceans. Let us now meet them to learn more about their endeavors.
