Bowhead #whales are true survivors, traveling long distances beneath thick ice. When open water’s not available, they use the top of their head to push through the thinnest ice, creating a breathing hole to survive the harsh conditions.

Yes, one single humpback whale is worthy of this effort to save his life and take him back to deeper water. He is cooperative and appeare grateful as he swam onto the barge. Heartwarming report. 💙🐳

That time a whale held our boat hostage for 1h. Engine was turned off once whale was spotted in the distance. It approached and was spy hopping and rubbing up on the boat. It was cool to photograph his little hairs when he popped up. 🐋 #whales #photography #marinemammals 🧪

Recently, I read about a rescue of 30 beluga #whales from a closed marine park in Canada and their transfer to new U.S. facilities. That got me thinking — when and how did the #Arctic whales become so popular in aquariums?
I dove into the #history in this issue of my newsletter, Arctic Archives 👇
