It's actually about humpback whales.

These humpback whales were getting killed.

And I was thinking of humpback whales breaching and dolphins.

Last month, Australia led international protests against Japan s plan to kill 50 humpback whales.

You probably saw the humpback whale footage that we got there a month or two ago off County Wexford.

The Japanese think that humpback whale numbers have increased sufficiently for the killing of 50 to pose no danger to the species.

According to Saudi Arabia, these deaths include 57 bottlenose dolphins, 13 humpback whales, one finless porpoise, 14 dugongs and eight unidentified cetaceans.

They wanted to put an end to it. And one of the ways they wanted to do it was to put a tracking chip inside one of these humpback whales.

In a funny, rapid fire 4 minutes, Alexis Ohanian of Reddit tells the real life fable of one humpback whale's rise to Web stardom. The lesson of Mister Splashy Pants is a shoo in classic for meme makers and marketers in the Facebook age.

While Japan has suspended its plan to kill humpback whales, its Japanese whaling fleet will still kill about 1,000 other whales, mostly smaller minke whales. Japan justifies its whaling as research, because the International Whaling Commission s rules allow member nations to kill whales for such purposes.
