#DidYouKnow that humpback and right whale mother-calf pairs have been recorded 'whispering' to each other? Humpbacks use quiet grunts and squeaks, while right whales communicate with soft mooing calls. Studies suggest this intimate communication is used to avoid being detected by predators such as orcas. #humpbackwhale #rightwhale | Ocean Conservation Research - OCR

Sperm whale nursing has been a scientific mystery for decades, but new footage finally reveals the whole story. Unlike most mammals, sperm whale moms hide their nipples inside a mammary slit. When a calf is ready to feed, it bumps the mother’s underside, slides its lower jaw into the slit, triggers the nipple to pop out, and suckles as thick, yogurt-like milk shoots directly into its mouth. This behavior was confirmed through years of underwater observation and captured beautifully in National G

Why would a humpback whale baby open its mouth in warm breeding & calving grounds? It’s not for feeding as there’s no krill in these warm tropical waters. Instead, calves open their mouths for a few fascinating reasons: 🐋 Nursing behavior: Calves may open their mouths when seeking milk & to signal feeding to mom. 🐋 Play & practice: Baby humpbacks often “practice” behaviors they’ll use later (like lunge-feeding motions) even though they won’t actually feed until they migrate to feeding grounds.

Mother humpbacks can lose up to one-third their body weight when nursing. [VID: How much milk does a humpback whale calf drink in a day? Nursing calves drink about 50 gallons of milk per day. To keep this in perspective, health experts recommend adult humans drink a half-gallon of water every day. At 50% fat content -- five times that of human breast milk -- whale milk is incredibly nutritious. Humpback whales do not feed during the months they are on the breeding grounds. Thus, the mother produ
