    If you like this, check out the Greatwinter trilogy, there is a “siren song” that the citaciones (whales) set at random times that lured humans to thier death, because they were done with out shit. Survivors walk around with “anchors on timers” so if you get caught in one, when the timer goes off the anchor drops, hopefully you get it tangled in something and stop walking so after the wave passes you you wake up. a very good od trilogy!

      I’ll have to check that out! There’s also Cachalot by Alan Dean Foster, which is an old favorite of mine. Humans give cetaceans their own planet and–without spoiling too much–shenanigans ensue.
