People need to know that right whales are in the area for the next couple of weeks. They need to put that on their checklists of things they have to think about when operating vessels in that area. |
Right whales don't typically go into real warm water. Being in the Gulf of Mexico in March and April, we knew they had to go south [to warmer water] before they could go north. But lo and behold, those animals made it out of there and later were seen where they were supposed to be. |
To have a calf that lives for a month or two, and everything going along fine, that gets a little bit more suspicious. |
