whale migration
Whale migration refers to the seasonal movement of whales between feeding and breeding grounds. Many species, such as the humpback whale and gray whale, travel thousands of miles each year. They typically migrate from colder waters, where they feed on abundant food, to warmer waters for breeding and calving.
During migration, whales often travel in groups called pods. This journey can take several weeks and is influenced by factors like food availability and water temperature. Understanding whale migration helps researchers protect these magnificent creatures and their habitats, ensuring their survival for future generations.
