No, it's not an elephant. Join scientists as they ply the waters in search of giant humpback whales, and watch as one biologist employs an unusual research tool—a crossbow.

We have researchers using our bows on whales. They use them for a couple different things. They shot an arrow that takes a core sample of the blubber so they can check the health of the whale as well as looking for toxins. They also use it to shoot radio transmitters just into the blubber so they can track the movement of the whales. It is cool stuff. I should have some pictures in a month or so. The guys are out on trips off Norway i thinnk.
