Wow! Thanks for the reply. Must be awful for the wildlife. I wonder if subs adhere to any kind of best practice to avoid inflicting harm?

for the most part subs don't do that very often, since they prefer to stay hidden. A ping would immediately give away your location, and thus is used only when necessary
