This was actually a pretty disturbing story, considering that it's a very rare example of the primary protagonist being *brutally killed* - because of ignorance, misunderstanding and plain old prejudice. That's Death Note levels of dark, and this was a *Disney* cartoon from the mid 1940s! These days, considering what we've since learned about Sperm Whales, we'd probably headline him at the Met for real. Actual Sperm Whales can sing at over 200 dB! Talk about bringing the house down!
