HUMPBACK WHALE<br />
(Megaptera novaeangliae)<br />
Humpback whales are such majestic creatures.<br />
Weighing anywhere up to 50 tonnes, they<br />
can propel themselves out of the water and<br />
perform stunning acrobatic displays. During<br />
migration season around 1,200 humpback<br />
whales make their way between Antarctica<br />
and Australia. Along the way the males<br />
communicate by song, which can be heard for<br />
hundreds of kilometres.<br />
To witness one of these gentle giants<br />
we recommend you go to Spirit Whale<br />
Watching, who have a whale sighting<br />
guarantee.
