Military Sonar, Marine Life Strandings

The Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology reports that mass strandings of dolphins and whales are likely caused by powerful military sonar rendering the animals deaf. The sonar acts as a blinding force for marine life that relies on echolocation, leading them to beach themselves in search of quiet. Despite various legal challenges, the military continues to use high-powered sonar in sensitive habitats.
