http://www.ecologyproject.org You're watching EPI students' footage of humpback whales in the Sea of Cortez exhibiting a unique behavior called "bubble feeding." The whale blows a large ring of bubbles that rises to become a cloudy, hollow cylinder, confusing and trapping small fish inside. Sand lance, mackerel and herring—all much faster swimmers than the humpback—can then be concentrated and consumed in mass quantities.
