Whale launches itself above water = “breaching”
Possible reasons for breaching:
- Communicating to nearby whales through the sound of impact
- Dislodge whale lice, barnacles, etc.
- Just to have fun!

With approximately 70 females left NOAAFish_NEFSC last year issued a harassment take auth. at 130% of the #rightwhale population. Unfathomable that this org and Bureau of Ocean Energy Management are not under investigation.

Brought our #BallPython , Lorien, in to help teach about #vestigial parts in the evolution unit. Constricting #snakes are more basal than other snakes and have “spurs” which are remnants of legs. 🐍 I also have a #RightWhale pelvis and femur cast. ( #Spermwhale on board) #scicomm
The endangered North Atlantic right whale appears to be the wind industry’s next victim and no professed environmental group like you'd expect (Greenpeace International off the top of most people's heads, or Sierra Club) is coming to their resecue. Why?

Another entangled #rightwhale
...and most recently seen gear-free in Cape Cod Bay in March 2024.
So this must be gear from New England. We're way way over allowable deaths and injuries from US gear for this year. It's April...

And now this news is out - fisheries.noaa.gov/national/endan…
Yet another dead right whale. A female who had a calf this year. Hoping for the calf's sake that it died instantly.

It's #RightWhale Day in Massachusetts, and for a good reason.
This is one of the most endangered animals on the planet.
