Humpback Whales are known for their loud calls, congregating fellow members of the pod and communicating through the vastness of the ocean but did you know that they can also whisper?

Newborn humpback whales and their mothers have been studied and it has shown that they can share a unique, intimate form of communication, By calling softly to its mother, the calf is less likely be overheard and preyed on by killer whales. These faint whispers between mother and child could also be a way to keep mate-seeking males from interfering in the humpback’s nurturing, a crucial time in the newborn’s life as it braces for an arduous 8,000km (5,000 mile) journey back home to the Antarctic.

Humpback whales can be found both in the Arctic and Antarctic. Each pod spends the summer at the poles and travels to tropical areas in their respective hemispheres during the winter to breed.
