Whale Research so far...

So far I have found the whale research very interesting especially with all the new things that I have been learning about whales and about the growth economically of Samana and the Dominican Republic. I have learned that Samana's economy is growing incredibly every year. For example I learned that once it was only occupied by a few thousand people while now over 35,000 people live there! I also learned that with the growth of Samana, the humpback whales that come here every winter are starting to get bothered by the crowded cities. Lastly, I learned that the tourism in Samana also grows incredibly every year.
