Monterey Bay Whale Watch (05/19/2008) - NSTCC

Uploaded by tncritterman on May 24, 2008
Members of the Student Biological Society of Northeast State Community College of Tennessee on a whale watching adventure out of Monterey Bay, California. Two very friendly Humpback Whales provided the group with hours of awe and enjoyment. Dozens and dozens of breaches were performed by these magnificent and beautiful giants!!!
Humpback Whales were once hunted to the brink of extinction. Due to their slow swimming and close association to shore, they were fairly easy targets for whalers. The worldwide population plummeted by approximately 90% (to less than 1,500 individuals) before the hunting of humpbacks was banned in 1966. The current estimated population is now around 10-30,000 individuals.
The music is "Last of the Great Whales" by Solas.
