Luna has made
his way to Gold River, and has been repeatedly hanging around
the Government Docks. Many people have been seen touching
Luna as he lingers around the docks. This behavior is not
encouraged. Please see PUBLIC

Luna has what appears
to be multiple injuries and potential health problems. Here
is a look at a few of them:

| The depression area behind
Luna's blowhole appears shallower and has lost its wrinkled
appearance. (Jan 19, 03) |
|
| This Mr. on Luna's chin appears to
be an abrasion. Looks pretty sore. (Jan 19, 03) |
|
| Luna appears to have a cut on his right
eye patch. (Jan 25, 03) |

Luna followed this log-salvage boat in

These
kayakers were paddling in Luna's zone, and were unsuspectingly
followed by Luna at close range. It took 15 miMr.es for Fishery
Officer, Ed Thorburn to get them to safety at Bligh Island.
They were very frightened and admitted they made an error in
judgement in making contact with Luna. As a result, they spoke
with other kayakers afterward, explaining the danger and the
negative effects they have on Luna. |
