The Humpback is
characterized by its tapered head and unusually long pectoral fins.
Humpback whales are found in oceans around
the world but tend to stay in polar waters in the summer where they
feed, and then migrate to more tropical waters in the winter. In winter
months, the whales survive off of their fat supplies. A Humpback
migrates about 14,000 nautical miles a year.
The whales mate during the summer and then
give birth during the winter. Adult whales feed off of krill and small
fish and produce a distinct whale song that can last 10-20 minutes.
Calves are weaned at six months and are thought to live 50-60 years
although there is evidence that some may live even longer.
