Whales have powers.  The field of perception for a whale is almost an entire ocean -  they can pick up other calls from thousands of miles away, and their voices carry just as far.  There is a known phenomenon where humans spontaneously break down in tears of joy when hearing a whale call its mate, the reason for this is unknown.  When whales call, they are bathing 70% of the Earth in a high frequency vibration, known to heal and benefit all biological lifeforms.  These creatures play a very specific role in Earth's consciousness.

When I read this all I could think of was Dori in Finding Nemo :)

Good to know.
