The US Navy's sonar sends a pressure wave ripping through the lungs and brains of whales and dolphins
Sound Effects
The US Navy's antisubmarine warfare strategists probably wish they could emulate the way whales and dolphins navigate the ocean depths. Instead, the Navy submarines rely on various types of man-made sonar to monitor key shipping channels. With the advent of the modern, ultra-quiet enemy submarine, the Navy insists its personnel must be trained in using certain types of active sonar - the kind that blasts a pulse thousands of miles through the water and sends a pressure wave ripping through the lungs and brains of whales and dolphins. The wave causes deafness, disorientation, acute stress, violent behavior and separation of mother and calf pairs. This is only for starters.
