Whale health and how to play doctor...

No kidding. I love whales. I had an interesting encounter with a wild gray in California once. The account is in my book. I would see them in Oregon. You can tell them by their exhalations if you can't see the whole animal.

For the record, I am vehemently opposed to the Navy's sonar testing.

Anyway - here's how scientists are gather information on their health:
