Solitary humpback whales manufacture bubble-nets as tools to increase prey intake

Royal Society Open Science
Several animal species use tools for foraging; however, very few manufacture and/or modify those tools. Humpback whales, which manufacture bubble-net tools while foraging, are among these rare species.

Humpback whale masked hearing thresholds in noise measured with modified behavioral observation audiometry

Communications Biology
Audiograms are available for multiple species of odontocetes (toothed whales). However, there are no empirically measured audiograms for any mysticete (baleen whale) meaning their hearing sensitivity is inferred.
