...that still doesn't answer the question of what mechanism might be at work. The authors offer a few hypotheses. For instance, stress may somehow stimulate the growth of nerve fibers near sebaceous glands, which in turn contributes to the increased production of sebum - the fatty substance that combines with cell debris and dead skin cells to form those familiar blackheads and pustules.

"I don't think it's a big topic here," he says. "As long as [their killing] is humane, dolphins are like other animals to us." The most humane technique, according to Nishimura, would be to use high-tech machines to minimize...
