Both the lecturer and the reading passage discuss whale stranding. The lecturer, however, refutes the author's claim on few possible reasons for whale stranding by presenting three counterarguments.
First, the lecturer claims that whale stranding is disputable due to the wind patterns. The author does not account for the fact that whales exist all over the world where there are various wind patterns exist. For example, the wind pattern in the west part of the United States is different from that of the east region. This counters the author's claim that the flow of wind, due to wind patterns cause whales to be stranded.
Second, the lecturer asserts that illness would unlikely be the reason for whale stranding. This is because healthy whales are also stranded, and stranded whales are able to swim again once they are put back into the sea. This refutes the author's assertion that illness causes living whales to be stranded near shore.
Lastly, the lecturer says that it is controversial to see whales which cannot detect coast lines become stranded. He says that only some whales end up in the beaches although all whales use the same sonar system. Also, whales that live by the coastline are in fact more possible to be stranded, but they become stranded rarely. This opposes the author's statement that coastlines that whales cannot detect cause them to be stranded.
