The Lost Whale Ocean: What Happened to the Giants?

This documentary tells the story of the whales that once filled the oceans in their millions before vanishing at human hands. It traces the giants' extraordinary intelligence and behaviour, then confronts the era of industrial whaling that pushed many toward oblivion. The film also examines the fragile recovery underway and what the loss of these creatures means for the seas. Combining striking underwater footage with a sober history, it is both awe-inspiring and cautionary. It reframes how we see the ocean's largest inhabitants. Free to stream in 4K on Dr Documentary.
