[Paddlewise] whales and kayaks

Just a thought from left field, intended to add a bit of color to the discussion,
and not intended to be critical of any point of view expressed here so far.

I'm always struck by our attitude toward the creatures that have adapted best
to human habitation: rats and cockroaches. 
Why is it that we're disgusted by the creatures that can tolerate us best, and
live in our environment so well? And is there a chance that wild animals might
consider the human species to be a form of "cockroach"?
