Translations: all3 whaler3
Оба вида на грани исчезновения и были практически уничтожены ранними китобоями, но ситуация с Южными китами лучше, так как они обитают в местах, далеких от человеческой деятельности. Now, both species were hunted to the brink of extinction by the early whalers, but the Southern right whales have rebounded a lot better because they're located in places farther away from human activity.
Более того, китобои не хотят использовать большое количество взрывчатого вещества, так как оно разорвало бы кита на куски, в то время как основная цель заключается в добыче ценного китового жира или мяса. Moreover, whalers do not want to use a large amount of explosive, because that would blow the whale to pieces, while the whole point is to recover valuable oil or flesh.
Но в течение 9 лет перед тем, как Дрейк наткнулся на нефть в 1859 году, рынок освещения китовым жиром сократился в 6 раз как минимум, из-за безжалостной конкуренции - в основном, со стороны нефти и газа. Тем не менее, китобои не брали конкурентов в расчет. But in the nine years before Drake struck oil, in 1859, at least five-sixths of that whale oil-illuminating market disappeared, thanks to fatal competitors, chiefly oil and gas made from coal, to which the whalers had not been paying attention.
