did you know that each wale carries its own "ID card" hidden in the unique patterns of its tail fluke ?
These natural fingerprints lets us track their migrations across the oceans, sometimes finding the same giants months (or even years) later on the other side of the world
You can upload your photos of whale flukes to happywhale.com/ 🔎
Grateful for these encounters 🖤

WHALE BREACH 🐋
Serves several purposes :
- Communication: the sound of the impact travels a long distance underwater, allowing whales to signal their presence or send messages.
- Removing parasites: the hit against the surface helps dislodge barnacles and other organisms attached to their skin.
- Play or strength display: young whales practice coordination, while adults may show power or vitality.
- Courtship: during the breeding season, some males breach to impress females or compete with other males.
