Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) from breeding stock A migrate annually between Antarctic feeding grounds (~65° S) and Brazilian breeding areas (~17° S). Traditionally considered to fast during migration, recent feeding observations and increased strandings along southeastern Brazil (~23° S) raise questions about possible shifts in ...

Source levels of foraging humpback whale calls [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2018 Humpback whales produce a wide range of low- to mid-frequency vocalizations throughout their migratory range. Non-song “calls” dominate this species' vocal repertoire while on high-latitude foraging grounds. The source levels of 426 humpback whale calls in four vocal classes were estimated using a four-element planar array deployed in Glacier Bay ...

Sexing From Seawater: Application of Environmental DNA Beyond Species Detection for Cetaceans
Environmental DNAAnthropogenic pressures on marine ecosystems are intensifying, highlighting the need to bridge knowledge gaps for species at risk. Data deficiencies, particularly for species recovering from historic declines, such as marine megafauna like whales, hinder

Soviet Illegal Whaling: The Devil and the Details [PDF]
, 2011 In 1948, the U.S.S.R. began a global campaign of illegal whaling that lasted for three decades and, together with the poorly managed “legal” whaling of other nations, seriously depleted whale populations.

Epigenetic estimation of age in humpback whales [PDF]
Molecular Ecology Resources, 2014 AbstractAge is a fundamental aspect of animal ecology, but is difficult to determine in many species. Humpback whales exemplify this as they have a lifespan comparable to humans, mature sexually as early as 4 years and have no reliable visual age indicators after their first year.
